The steps are similiar for + all the operating systems supported by CMake. + + NOTES: + 1. Using CMake for building and using HDF5 is under active development. + While we have attempted to provide error-free files, please + understand that development with CMake has not been extensively + tested outside of HDF. The CMake specific files may change + before the next release. + + 2. CMake was originally introduced to support development on Windows, + however it should be usable on any system where CMake is supported. + Please send us any comments on how CMake support can be improved on + any system. Visit the KitWare site for more information about CMake. + + 3. Build and test results can be submitted to our CDash server at: + cdash.hdfgroup.uiuc.edu. + Please read the HDF and CDash document at: + www.hdfgroup.org/CDash/HowToSubmit. + + +======================================================================== + Preconditions +======================================================================== + + 1. We suggest you obtain the latest CMake for windows from the Kitware + web site. The HDF5 1.8.x product requires CMake version 2.8.4. + + 2. You have installed the HDF5 library built with CMake. If you are + using a Windows platform, you can obtain a pre-built Windows binary + from The HDF Group's website at www.hdfgroup.org. + + 3. On Windows with Visual Studio, if you have installed the static HDF5 + library, you will need to add the HDF5\lib folder to the library + search list. See the "Using Static Libraries with Visual Studio" section. + + 4. Set the environment variable HDF5_ROOT to the installed location of HDF5. + On Windows HDF5_ROOT=C:\Program Files\HDF Group\HDF5\hdf5-1.8.7 + +======================================================================== + Building HDF5 Examples with CMake +======================================================================== + + 1. Run CMake + + The CMake executable is named "cmake-gui.exe" on Windows and should be + available in your Start menu. For Linux, UNIX, and Mac users the + executable is named "cmake-gui" and can be found where CMake was + installed. + Specify the source and build directories. It is recommemded that you + choose a build directory different then the source directory + (for example on Windows, if the source is at c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5, then + use c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\build or c:\MyHDFstuff\build\hdf5). + + OPTIONAL: + Users can perform the configuration step without using the visual cmake-gui + program. Example configuration step executed within the build directory: + + cmake -G "" [-D] + + Where is + * Borland Makefiles + * MSYS Makefiles + * MinGW Makefiles + * NMake Makefiles + * Unix Makefiles + * Visual Studio 10 + * Visual Studio 10 Win64 + * Visual Studio 6 + * Visual Studio 7 + * Visual Studio 7 .NET 2003 + * Visual Studio 8 2005 + * Visual Studio 8 2005 Win64 + * Visual Studio 9 2008 + * Visual Studio 9 2008 Win64 + + is: + * BUILD_TESTING:BOOL=ON + * USE_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=[ON | OFF] + + 2. Configure the cache settings + + 2.1 Click the Configure button. If this is the first time you are + running cmake-gui in this directory, you will be prompted for the + generator you wish to use (for example on Windows, Visual Studio 9 2008). + CMake will read in the CMakeLists.txt files from the source directory and + display options for the HDF5 project. After the first configure you + can adjust the cache settings and/or specify locations of other programs. + + Any conflicts or new values will be highlighted by the configure + process in red. Once you are happy with all the settings and there are no + more values in red, click the Generate button to produce the appropriate + build files. + + On Windows, if you are using a Visual Studio generator, the solution and + project files will be created in the build folder. + + On linux, if you are using the Unix Makefiles generator, the Makefiles will + be created in the build folder. + + 2.2 Alternative command line example on Windows in c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\build directory: + + cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" -DBUILD_TESTING:BOOL=ON -DUSE_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=ON .. + + 3. Build HDF5 examples + + On Windows, you can build HDF5 using either the Visual Studio Environment + or the command line. The command line is used on linux, Unix, and Mac. + + To build from the command line, navigate to your build directory and + execute the following; + + cmake --build . --config {Debug | Release} + + NOTE: "--config {Debug | Release}" may be optional on your platform. We + recommend choosing either Debug or Release on Windows. If you are + using the pre-built binaries from HDF, use Release. + + 3.1 If you wish to use the Visual Studio environment, open the solution + file in your build directory. Be sure to select either Debug or + Release and build the solution. + + 4. Test HDF5 Examples. + + To test the build, navigate to your build directory and execute; + + ctest . -C {Debug | Release} + + NOTE: "-C {Debug | Release}" may be optional on your platform. We + recommend choosing either Debug or Release to match the build + step on Windows. + + 6. The files that support building with CMake are all the files in the + config/cmake folder, the CMakeLists.txt files in each source folder, and + CTestConfig.cmake. CTestConfig.cmake is specific to the internal testing + performed by The HDF Group. It should be altered for the users + installation and needs. + + 7. More information about using CMake can be found at the KitWare site, + www.cmake.org. + + +======================================================================== + Using HDF5 Libraries with Visual Studio 2008 +======================================================================== + + 8. Set up path for external libraries and headers + + Invoke Microsoft Visual Studio and go to "Tools" and select "Options", + find "Projects", and then "VC++ Directories". + + 8.1 If you are building on 64-bit Windows, find the "Platform" dropdown + and select "x64". + + 8.2 Find the box "Show directories for", choose "Include files", add the + header path (i.e. c:\Program Files\HDF Group\HDF5\hdf5-1.8.7\include) + to the included directories. + + 8.3 Find the box "Show directories for", choose "Library files", add the + library path (i.e. c:\Program Files\HDF Group\HDF5\hdf5-1.8.7\lib) + to the library directories. + + 8.4 If using Fortran libraries, you will also need to setup the path + for the Intel Fortran compiler. + + +************************************************************************ + +Need further assistance, send email to help@hdfgroup.org + -- cgit v0.12
