Preconditions ======================================================================== Obtaining HDF5 source code 1. Create a directory for your development; for example, "myhdfstuff". 2. Obtain compressed (*.tar or *.zip) HDF5 source from http://www.hdfgroup.org/ftp/HDF5/current/src/ and put it in "myhdfstuff". Uncompress the file. There should be a hdf5-1.8."X" folder. CMake version 1. We suggest you obtain the latest CMake from the Kitware web site. The HDF5 1.8."X" product requires a minimum CMake version 3.2.2, where "X" is the current HDF5 release version. Note: To change the install prefix from the platform defaults initialize the CMake variable, CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. ======================================================================== II. Quick Step Building HDF5 Libraries with CMake Script Mode ======================================================================== This short set of instructions is written for users who want to quickly build the HDF5 C and C++ static libraries and tools with SZIP and ZLIB compression included. This procedure will use the default settings in the config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake file. HDF Group recommends using the ctest script mode to build HDF5. The following files referenced below are available at the HDF web site: http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/release/cmakebuild.html Single compressed file with all the files needed, including source: hdf5-1.8.19-CMake.zip or hdf5-1.8.19-CMake.tar.gz Individual files ----------------------------------------------- CMake build script: CTestScript.cmake External compression szip and zlib libraries: SZip.tar.gz ZLib.tar.gz Platform configuration files: HDF518config.cmake ----------------------------------------------- To build HDF5 with the SZIP and ZLIB external libraries you will need to: 1. Change to the development directory "myhdfstuff". 2. Download the SZip.tar.gz and ZLib.tar.gz to "myhdfstuff". Do not uncompress the files. 3. Download the CTestScript.cmake file to "myhdfstuff". CTestScript.cmake file should not be modified. 4. Download the platform configuration file, HDF518config.cmake, to "myhdfstuff". Do not modify the file unless you want to change default build environment. (See http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/release/chgcmkbuild.html) 5. From the "myhdfstuff" directory execute the CTest Script with the following options: On 32-bit Windows with Visual Studio 2012, execute: ctest -S HDF518config.cmake,BUILD_GENERATOR=VS2012 -C Release -VV -O hdf5.log On 64-bit Windows with Visual Studio 2012, execute: ctest -S HDF518config.cmake,BUILD_GENERATOR=VS201264 -C Release -VV -O hdf5.log On 32-bit Windows with Visual Studio 2013, execute: ctest -S HDF518config.cmake,BUILD_GENERATOR=VS2013 -C Release -VV -O hdf5.log On 64-bit Windows with Visual Studio 2013, execute: ctest -S HDF518config.cmake,BUILD_GENERATOR=VS201364 -C Release -VV -O hdf5.log On Linux and Mac, execute: ctest -S HDF518config.cmake,BUILD_GENERATOR=Unix -C Release -VV -O hdf5.log The command above will configure, build, test, and create an install package in the myhdfstuff folder. It will have the format: HDF5-1.8.NN-. On Unix, will be "Linux". A similar .sh file will also be created. On Windows, will be "win64" or "win32". If you have an installer on your system, you will also see a similar file that ends in either .exe (NSIS) or .msi (WiX). The -S option uses the script version of ctest. The value for the -C option (as shown above, "-C Release") must match the setting for CTEST_CONFIGURATION_TYPE in the platform configuration file. The -VV option is for most verbose; use -V for less verbose. The "-O hdf5.log" option saves the output to a log file hdf5.log. 6. To install, "X" is the current release version On Windows, execute: HDF5-1.8."X"-win32.msi or HDF5-1.8."X"-win64.msi By default this program will install the hdf5 library into the "C:\Program Files" directory and will create the following directory structure: HDF_Group --HDF5 ----1.8."X" ------bin ------include ------lib ------cmake On Linux, change to the install destination directory (create it if doesn't exist) and execute: /myhdfstuff/HDF5-1.8."X"-Linux.sh After accepting the license, the script will prompt: By default the HDF5 will be installed in: "/HDF5-1.8."X"-Linux" Do you want to include the subdirectory HDF5-1.8."X"-Linux? Saying no will install in: "" [Yn]: Note that the script will create the following directory structure relative to the install point: HDF_Group --HDF5 ----1.8."X" ------bin ------include ------lib ------share On Mac you will find HDF5-1.8."X"-Darwin.dmg in the myhdfstuff folder. Click on the dmg file to proceed with installation. After accepting the license, there will be a folder with the following structure: HDF_Group --HDF5 ----1.8."X" ------bin ------include ------lib ------share By default the installation will create the bin, include, lib and cmake folders in the /HDF_Group/HDF5/1.8."X" ======================================================================== III. Quick Step Building HDF5 C Static Libraries and Tools with CMake ======================================================================== Notes: This short set of instructions is written for users who want to quickly build the just the HDF5 C static library and tools from the HDF5 source code package using the CMake command line tools. Go through these steps: 1. Change to the development directory "myhdfstuff". 2. Uncompress the HDF5 source file 3. Create a folder "build" in the "myhdfstuff" directory. 4. Change into the "build" folder. 5. Configure the C library, tools and tests with one of the following commands: On Windows 32 bit cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=OFF -DBUILD_TESTING:BOOL=ON -DHDF5_BUILD_TOOLS:BOOL=ON ..\hdf5-1.8."X" On Windows 64 bit cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013 Win64" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=OFF -DBUILD_TESTING:BOOL=ON -DHDF5_BUILD_TOOLS:BOOL=ON ..\hdf5-1.8."X" On Linux and Mac cmake -G "Unix Makefiles" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=OFF -DBUILD_TESTING:BOOL=ON -DHDF5_BUILD_TOOLS:BOOL=ON ../hdf5-1.8."X" where "X" is the current release version. 6. Build the C library, tools and tests with this command: cmake --build . --config Release 7. Test the C library and tools with this command: ctest . -C Release 8. Create an install image with this command: cpack -C Release CPackConfig.cmake 9. To install On Windows, execute: HDF5-1.8."X"-win32.msi or HDF5-1.8."X"-win64.msi By default this program will install the hdf5 library into the "C:\Program Files" directory and will create the following directory structure: HDF_Group --HDF5 ----1.8."X" ------bin ------include ------lib ------cmake On Linux, change to the install destination directory (create if doesn't exist) and execute: /myhdfstuff/build/HDF5-1.8."X"-Linux.sh After accepting the license, the script will prompt: By default the HDF5 will be installed in: "/HDF5-1.8."X"-Linux" Do you want to include the subdirectory HDF5-1.8."X"-Linux? Saying no will install in: "" [Yn]: Note that the script will create the following directory structure relative to the install point: HDF_Group --HDF5 ----1.8."X" ------bin ------include ------lib ------share On Mac you will find HDF5-1.8."X"-Darwin.dmg in the build folder. Click on the dmg file to proceed with installation. After accepting the license, there will be a folder with the following structure: HDF_Group --HDF5 ----1.8."X" ------bin ------include ------lib ------share ======================================================================== IV. Further considerations ======================================================================== 1. We suggest you obtain the latest CMake for windows from the Kitware web site. The HDF5 1.8."X" product requires a minimum CMake version 3.2.2. 2. If you plan to use Zlib or Szip: A. Download the binary packages and install them in a central location. For example on Windows, create a folder extlibs and install the packages there. Add the following CMake options: -DZLIB_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=some_location/lib/zlib.lib -DZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=some_location/include -DSZIP_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=some_location/lib/szlib.lib -DSZIP_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=some_location/include where "some_location" is the full path to the extlibs folder. B. Use source packages from an GIT server by adding the following CMake options: HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT:STRING="GIT" ZLIB_GIT_URL:STRING="http://some_location/zlib" SZIP_GIT_URL:STRING="http://some_location/szip" where "some_location" is the URL to the GIT repository. Also set CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to the configuration type. C. Use source packages from a compressed file by adding the following CMake options: HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT:STRING="TGZ" ZLIB_TGZ_NAME:STRING="zlib_src.ext" SZIP_TGZ_NAME:STRING="szip_src.ext" TGZPATH:STRING="some_location" where "some_location" is the URL or full path to the compressed file and ext is the type of compression file. Also set CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to the configuration type during configuration 3. If you are building on Apple Darwin platforms, you should add the following options: Compiler choice - use xcode by setting the ENV variables of CC and CXX Shared fortran is not supported, build static: BUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=OFF Additional options: CMAKE_ANSI_CFLAGS:STRING=-fPIC CTEST_USE_LAUNCHERS:BOOL=ON CMAKE_BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_RPATH:BOOL=OFF 4. Windows developers should install NSIS or WiX to create an install image with CPack. Visual Studio Express users will not be able to package HDF5 into an install image executable. 5. Developers can copy the config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake file and alter the the settings for the developers' environment. Then the only options needed on the command line are those options that are different. Example using HDF default cache file: cmake -C ../config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" \ -DHDF5_ENABLE_SZIP_SUPPORT:BOOL=OFF -DHDF5_ENABLE_Z_LIB_SUPPORT:BOOL=OFF \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release .. Notes: CMake and HDF5 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 support for HDF5 development 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, please read the HDF and CDash document at: www.hdfgroup.org/CDash/HowToSubmit. 4. See the appendix at the bottom of this file for examples of using a ctest script for building and testing. Using a ctest script is preferred because of its flexibility. Notes: CMake in General 1. More information about using CMake can be found at the KitWare site at www.cmake.org. 2. CMake uses the command line; however, the visual CMake tool is available for the configuration step. The steps are similar for all the operating systems supported by CMake. ======================================================================== V. Options for Building HDF5 Libraries with the CMake Command Line ======================================================================== To build the HDF5 Libraries with CMake, go through these five steps: 1. Run CMake 2. Configure the cache settings 3. Build HDF5 4. Test HDF5 5. Package HDF5 (create install image) These five steps are described in detail below. ======================================================================== 1. Run CMake The visual 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. ***** Make the build and source directories different. ****** For example on Windows, if the source is at c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5, then use c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\build or c:\MyHDFstuff\build\hdf5 as the build directory. RECOMMENDED: Users can perform the configuration step without using the visual cmake-gui program. We use the file cacheinit.cmake in the config/cmake source folder for our testing. This file enables all of the basic options and we turn specific options on or off for testing using the following command line within the build directory: cmake -C /config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake -G "" [-D] Where is * MinGW Makefiles * NMake Makefiles * Unix Makefiles * Visual Studio 11 2012 * Visual Studio 11 2012 Win64 * Visual Studio 12 2013 * Visual Studio 12 2013 Win64 * Visual Studio 14 2015 * Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64 is: * SZIP_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH= * SZIP_LIBRARY:FILEPATH= * ZLIB_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH= * ZLIB_LIBRARY:FILEPATH= * :BOOL=[ON | OFF] is: # This is the CMakeCache file used by HDF Group for daily tests. ######################## # EXTERNAL cache entries ######################## set (CMAKE_INSTALL_FRAMEWORK_PREFIX "Library/Frameworks" CACHE STRING "Frameworks installation directory" FORCE) set (HDF_PACKAGE_EXT "" CACHE STRING "Name of HDF package extension" FORCE) set (HDF5_BUILD_FORTRAN ON CACHE BOOL "Build FORTRAN support" FORCE) set (HDF5_ENABLE_Z_LIB_SUPPORT ON CACHE BOOL "Enable Zlib Filters" FORCE) set (HDF5_ENABLE_SZIP_SUPPORT ON CACHE BOOL "Use SZip Filter" FORCE) set (HDF5_ENABLE_SZIP_ENCODING ON CACHE BOOL "Use SZip Encoding" FORCE) set (MPIEXEC_MAX_NUMPROCS "3" CACHE STRING "Minimum number of processes for HDF parallel tests" FORCE) set (HDF5_ENABLE_ALL_WARNINGS ON CACHE BOOL "Enable all warnings" FORCE) set (HDF_TEST_EXPRESS "2" CACHE STRING "Control testing framework (0-3)" FORCE) set (HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT "NO" CACHE STRING "Allow External Library Building (NO GIT TGZ)" FORCE) set_property (CACHE HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT PROPERTY STRINGS NO GIT TGZ) set (ZLIB_TGZ_NAME "ZLib.tar.gz" CACHE STRING "Use ZLib from compressed file" FORCE) set (SZIP_TGZ_NAME "SZip.tar.gz" CACHE STRING "Use SZip from compressed file" FORCE) set (ZLIB_PACKAGE_NAME "zlib" CACHE STRING "Name of ZLIB package" FORCE) set (SZIP_PACKAGE_NAME "szip" CACHE STRING "Name of SZIP package" FORCE) 2. Configure the cache settings 2.1 Visual CMake users, 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 11). 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 the 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 Preferred command line example on Windows in c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\build directory: cmake -C ../config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013" \ -DHDF5_ENABLE_SZIP_SUPPORT:BOOL=OFF -DHDF5_ENABLE_Z_LIB_SUPPORT:BOOL=OFF \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release .. 2.3 On Windows, if you are using a Visual Studio Express version you must be sure that the following two options are correctly set/unset: HDF5_NO_PACKAGES:BOOL=ON HDF5_USE_FOLDERS:BOOL=OFF 3. Build HDF5 On Windows, you can build HDF5 using either the Visual Studio Environment or the command line. The command line can be used on all platforms; Windows, 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. 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. 3.2.1 The external libraries (zlib and szip) can be configured to allow building the libraries by downloading from an GIT repository. The option is 'HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT'; by adding the following configuration option: -DHDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT:STRING="GIT" The options to control the GIT URL (config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake file) are: ZLIB_GIT_URL:STRING="http://${git_url}/zlib" SZIP_GIT_URL:STRING="http://${git_url}/szip" ${git_url} should be changed to your location. Also define CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to be the configuration type. 3.2.2 Or the external libraries (zlib and szip) can be configured to allow building the libraries by using a compressed file. The option is 'HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT' and is enabled by adding the following configuration option: -DHDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT:STRING="TGZ" The options to control the SVN URL (config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake file) are: ZLIB_TGZ_NAME:STRING="zlib_src.ext" SZIP_TGZ_NAME:STRING="szip_src.ext" TGZPATH:STRING="some_location" where "some_location/xxxx_src.ext" is the URL or full path to the compressed file and where ext is the type of the compression file such as .bz2, .tar, .tar.gz, .tgz, or .zip. Also define CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to be the configuration type. 4. Test HDF5 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. 5. Packaging HDF5 (create an install image) To package the build into a simple installer using WiX toolset or the NullSoft installer NSIS on Windows, or into compressed files (.tar.gz, .sh, .zip), use the CPack tool. To package the build, navigate to your build directory and execute; cpack -C {Debug | Release} CPackConfig.cmake NOTE: See note 8 of this document for NSIS information. See note 9 of this document for WiX information. Also, if you are using a Visual Studio Express version or want to disable the packaging components, set HDF5_NO_PACKAGES to ON (on the command line add -DHDF5_NO_PACKAGES:BOOL=ON) 6. The files that support building HDF5 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 user's installation and needs. The cacheinit.cmake file settings are used by The HDF Group for daily testing. It should be altered/ignored for the user's installation and needs. 7. More information about using CMake can be found at the KitWare site, www.cmake.org. 8. Nullsoft Scriptable Install System The Nullsoft Scriptable Install System (NSIS) is an open source installation system. It was created by the WinAmp authors to distribute that application, but it is now a general-purpose system which anyone might use. NSIS installers recognize /S for silent installation and /D=dir to specify the "output directory", which is where the program will be installed. These options are case-sensitive, so be sure to type them in upper case. 9. WiX Toolset WiX--the Windows Installer XML toolset--lets developers create installers for Windows Installer, the Windows installation engine. See http://wixtoolset.org. ======================================================================== VI. CMake Option Defaults for HDF5 ======================================================================== In the options listed below, there are three columns of information: Option Name, Option Description, and Option Default. The config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake file can override the following values. ---------------- General Build Options --------------------- BUILD_SHARED_LIBS "Build Shared Libraries" ON BUILD_STATIC_EXECS "Build Static Executables" OFF BUILD_TESTING "Build HDF5 Unit Testing" ON ---------------- HDF5 Build Options --------------------- HDF5_BUILD_CPP_LIB "Build HDF5 C++ Library" ON HDF5_BUILD_EXAMPLES "Build HDF5 Library Examples" ON HDF5_BUILD_FORTRAN "Build FORTRAN support" OFF HDF5_BUILD_HL_LIB "Build HIGH Level HDF5 Library" ON HDF5_BUILD_TOOLS "Build HDF5 Tools" ON if (HDF5_BUILD_FORTRAN) HDF5_ENABLE_F2003 "Enable FORTRAN 2003 Standard" ON ---------------- HDF5 Advanced Options --------------------- ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED "Allow unsupported combinations of configure options" OFF HDF5_DISABLE_COMPILER_WARNINGS "Disable compiler warnings" OFF HDF5_ENABLE_ALL_WARNINGS "Enable all warnings" OFF HDF5_Enable_Clear_File_Buffers "Securely clear file buffers before writing to file" ON HDF5_ENABLE_CODESTACK "Enable the function stack tracing (for developer debugging)."

User Defined Options for HDF5 Libraries with CMake ======================================================================== Support for User Defined macros and options has been added. The file UserMacros.cmake has an example of the technique. In the folder, config/cmake/UserMacros, is an implementation for Windows Visual Studio users for linking libraries to the static CRT - Windows_MT.cmake. Copy the contents of the file, both macro and option, into the UserMacros.cmake file. Then enable the option to the CMake configuration, build and test process. ======================================================================== VIII. Options for Platform Configuration Files ======================================================================== Below is the HDF518config.cmake and HDF5options.cmake ctest scripts. Execute: ctest -S HDF518config.cmake,BUILD_GENERATOR=xxx -C Release -VV -O hdf518.log The same scripts can be used on Linux, Mac OSX or a Windows machine by adding an option (${CTEST_SCRIPT_ARG}) to the platform configuration script. ############################################################################################# ### ${CTEST_SCRIPT_ARG} is of the form OPTION=VALUE ### ###
