<p class="note">Notes:</p>
<p>The following instructions assume that the HDF5 source code package from<a href="http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu" target="_blank">
HDF website (http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu)</a> is used. </p>

<hr class="second">
<h2><a name="preconditions">Preconditions</a> </h2>
<hr class="second">
<p>Please read CAREFULLY about the following preconditions and notes first.</p>
<h4>1. Installed Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 or Intel C compiler and WinZip.</h4>
<p>Installed Compaq Visual Fortran compiler(6.0 or higher version), or Intel Fortran
compiler if you want to build HDF5 Fortran libraries. </p>
<p class="note">Notes:</p>
<p>By default, WinZip will convert the Unix end of line format when extracting .tar
file. This conversion will cause "false" failure in some HDF5 tools testings. Please
uncheck the "TAR file smart CR/LF conversion" option in your WinZip to prevent the
conversion when extracting .tar file. To uncheck the "TAR file smart CR/LF conversion"
option: Invoke WinZip, go to "Options", select "Configuration..." Click the "Miscellaneous"
tab and uncheck "TAR file smart CR/LF conversion" option, then click OK. </p>
<h4>2. Set up a directory structure to unpack the library.</h4>
<p>For example:</p>
<p class="filename">c:\ (any drive)</p>
<p class="filename">MyHDFstuff\ (any folder name)</p>
<h4>3. Download the hdf5-1.8.x source code package </h4>
<p>Use WinZip to extract the HDF5 package into <span class="filename">c:\MyHDFstuff</span>.
This creates a directory called 'hdf5-1.8.x' under <span class="filename">MyHDFstuff</span>
which contains several files and directories. Rename <span class="filename">"hdf5-1.8.x"</span>
to<span class="filename"> "hdf5"</span>. </p>
<h4>4. HDF5 provide options to do in-memory compress within HDF5 library.</h4>
<p>Currently, two external compression libraries Zlib and Szip can be used with
HDF5. </p>
<ul class="intable">
<li>
<p>1. HDF5 uses Zlib version 1.2.2 for compression and Zlib is NOT distributed
with HDF5 library in 1.8.x release. To use Zlib library, you have to install your
own Zlib DLL library or go to
<a href="ftp://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/lib-external/zlib/1.2/bin" target="_blank">ftp://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/lib-external/zlib/1.2/bin
</a>to download the Zlib library.</p>
<p class="note">Notes:</p>
<p>Zlib 1.2.2 DLL library can also be downloaded from</p>
<p><a href="http://www.zlib.net/zlib122-dll.zip" target="_blank">http://www.zlib.net/zlib122-dll.zip
</a></p>
</li>
<li>
<p>2. HDF5 uses Szip version 2.0 for compression and Szip compression software
is provided with HDF5 products in 1.8.0 release. To use Szip 2.0 library, you
can download Szip source codes and binaries from</p>
<p>
<a href="ftp://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/lib-external/szip/2.0/bin/windows" target="_blank">
ftp://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/lib-external/szip/2.0/bin/windows </a></p>
<p class="note">Notes:</p>
<p>Please note that Szip is not a totally open-source free software. For licensing
issue of Szip, please check "Licensing terms" at
<a href="http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/doc_resource/SZIP/index.html" target="_blank">
http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/doc_resource/SZIP/index.html.</a> </p>
<p>Szip compression feature inside HDF5 is optional.</p>
</li>
</ul>
<h4>5. Define the following environment variables: </h4>
<ul class="normal">
<li>HDF5_EXT_ZLIB </li>
<li>HDF5_EXT_SZIP</li>
</ul>
<p>In this section, Zlib and Szip compression packages are assumed to be used. Please
read <a href="#section5" target="_blank">Section V</a> as well as this section if
you do not want to use compression feature inside HDF5. </p>
<p>To define these environment variables:</p>
<p>Click <span class="filename">"Start"</span>, click <span class="filename">"Control
Panel"</span>, and then double-click <span class="filename">"System"</span>. On
the <span class="filename">"Advanced"</span> tab, click <span class="filename">"Environment
Variables"</span>. If you are logged on as administrator to the local computer AND
want to let all other users use these two environment variables, click
<span class="filename">"New"</span> under <span class="filename">"System Variables"</span>
box; otherwise, click <span class="filename">"New"</span> under
<span class="filename">"User Variables"</span> box. In the New Variable window,
set <span class="filename">"Variable name"</span> as <span class="filename">HDF5_EXT_ZLIB</span>
and <span class="filename">"Variable value"</span> as <span class="filename">zdll.lib</span>,
then click OK. </p>
<p>Similarly, you can set:</p>
<p><span class="filename">HDF5_EXT_SZIP</span> environment variable as
<span class="filename">szlibdll.lib</span></p>
<p class="note">Notes:</p>
<ul class="intable">
<li>
<p>a. You might have to close and reopen running programs for the new environment
variable settings to take effect. </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>b. <span class="filename">c:\zlib122\zlib1.dll </span>and
<span class="filename">c:\szip\dll\szlibdll.dll</span> should be copied into the
location that the application can find, one suggestion is to use the
<span class="filename">c:\WINDOWS\system</span>. </p>
</li>
</ul>
<h4><a name="precondition6">6. Set up path for external libraries and headers</a></h4>
<p>Skip this part if you don't want to use ANY compression features provided by
HDF5. Please do read <a href="#section5" target="_blank">Section V</a>.</p>
<p>You have to read this part even if you want to only use Zlib or Szip. You also
need to read <a href="#section5" target="_blank">Section V</a>. </p>
<p>Invoke Microsoft Visual C++ and go to "Tools" and select "Options", find "Directories";
</p>
<ul class="intable">
<li>
<p>1. Find the box <span class="filename">"Show directories for"</span>, choose
<span class="filename">"Include files"</span>, if you can not find your Zlib and
Szip header path (for example, <span class="filename">c:\zlib122\include, c:\szip\include</span>)
from the directory list, add the header path (<span class="filename">c:\zlib122\include,
c:\szip\include</span>) to the included directories. </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>2. Find the box <span class="filename">"Show directories for"</span>, choose
<span class="filename">"Library files"</span>, If you cannot find your Zlib and
Szip library path (for example, <span class="filename">c:\zlib122\lib, c:\szip\dll</span>)
from the directory list, add the library path (<span class="filename">c:\zlib122\lib,
c:\szip\dll</span>) to the library directories. </p>
</li>
</ul>
<p class="note">Notes:</p>
<ul class="intable">
<li>
<p>1. In release 1.8.0, <span class="filename">all.zip</span> is deprecated. Users
should go to <span class="filename">hdf5/windows</span> directory, run

<h3><a name="step2_section2">STEP 2: Testing HDF5 libraries and tools</a></h3>
<p>HDF5 libraries and tools should be tested to make sure that they were built correctly.</p>
<p>We provide 2 options for users to test HDF5 libraries and tools.</p>
<h4>Option 1: Automatic Testings</h4>
<p>HDF5 comes with various test suites, all of which can be tested with hdf5check.bat
batch file in c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5 directory. </p>
<p>hdf5check batch file can be run with one of the following four options: </p>

<p>To use this option, HDF5 C++ and Fortran libraries must have been built
in step I.</p>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<p>Invoke a command prompt window and run hdf5check with appropriate option.</p>
<p>Test results are saved in two files:</p>
<p class="filename">c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\check_results.txt</p>
<p class="filename">c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\tests_results.txt.</p>
<p>In general, you only need to check<span class="filename"> tests_results.txt</span>.
If all the tests passed, then you do not have to check <span class="filename">check_results.txt</span>.
If some tests failed, check <span class="filename">check_results.txt</span> can
help you figure out what was wrong. </p>
<h4>Option 2: Step-by-step HDF5 libraries and tools testings</h4>
<p>You can also test HDF5 libraries and tools one by one. There are possibly four
versions of HDF5 libraries and tools testings. They are: </p>
<ul class="normal">
<li>
<p>release version</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>release dll version</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>debug version</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>debug dll version</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>We strongly suggest you to redirect your testing results into an output file
so that you can easily check the testing results. You may use either Notepad or
WordPad or whatever other windows word processor to check the results. For the purpose
of printing, please choose font less than 14 for better alignment of the text.
</p>

<p>We provide a batch file for users to relocate all HDF5 libraries in one folder
(C++ and Fortran libraries will also be copied into this folder if they have been
built in step I). The file is called <span class="filename">installhdf5lib.bat</span>
under <span class="filename">c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5</span> directory. Run the batch
file, you may see a folder called hdf5lib under <span class="filename">c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5</span>.
</p>
<p>The <release> layout of <hdf5lib> should be:</p>
<ul class="normal">
<li>release\include -- HDF5 header files </li>
<li>release\bin -- HDF5 static tool executables </li>
<li>release\bindll -- HDF5 DLL tool executables </li>
<li>release\lib -- HDF5 static libraries </li>
<li>release\dll -- HDF5 DLLs</li>

<h3>To use HDF5 static library</h3>
<p>To build an application using HDF5 Static Library, the following locations
will need to be specified for locating header files and linking with the HDF static
library, for example: </p>
