HDF5 Fortran90 Library Build and Testing Instructions for Windows NT/98
|
|
with DEC Visual Fortran V6.0
|
|
===============================================================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
Preconditions
|
|
|
|
1. These instructions are for users who wish to build the C and
|
|
Fortran90 libraries. If you are interested only in the C library,
|
|
see INSTAll_Windows.txt or INSTAll_codewarrior.txt.
|
|
|
|
2. MS VC++ V 6.0, DEC Visual Fortran V6.0, and WinZip must be installed
|
|
prior to building the HDF5 library.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Download the hdf5-1.4.2 distribution archive and run WinZip to unpack
|
|
the source code. The code will be unpacked into the hdf5\ directory.
|
|
|
|
4. HDF5 uses the zlib library, which is distributed with the HDF5 Windows
|
|
source code.
|
|
|
|
Note: Only a static Fortran Library is supported in this release.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building the HDF5 Fortran and C libraries (static only)
|
|
|
|
1. Unpack all_withf90.zip, found in the hdf5\ directory, into the
|
|
hdf5\ directory.
|
|
|
|
2. Go to the hdf5\proj\ directory and click on the file all.dsw.
|
|
This will invoke MS VC++.
|
|
|
|
3. Select "Build", then select "Set Active Configuration".
|
|
|
|
"all -- Win32 Debug" to build debug versions of
|
|
single-threaded static libraries, debug multithreaded DLLs,
|
|
|
|
and tests.
|
|
|
|
"all -- Win32 Release" to build release versions of
|
|
single-threaded static libraries, multithreaded DLLs,
|
|
and tests.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: "all" is a dummy target. You will get a link error when
|
|
"all.exe." is built:
|
|
|
|
LINK: error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol
|
|
_mainCRTStartup.....
|
|
all.exe - 2 error(s), ....
|
|
|
|
This warning messages can be ignored as the "all.exe" is never
|
|
created.
|
|
|
|
When the debug or release build is completed, the directories
|
|
listed below will contain the following files:
|
|
|
|
hdf5\proj\hdf5\debug -
|
|
hdf5\proj\hdf5\release -
|
|
hdf5.lib- the F90 and C hdf5 libraries
|
|
|
|
hdf5\proj\hdf5dll\debug -
|
|
hdf5ddll.dll- the F90 and C hdf5 libraries
|
|
hdf5ddll.lib- the dll export library
|
|
|
|
hdf5\proj\hdf5dll\release -
|
|
hdf5dll.dll- the F90 and C hdf5 libraries
|
|
hdf5dll.lib- the dll export library
|
|
|
|
Note: Only the C DLL works; an F90 DLL is not supported!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Testing libraries and tools
|
|
|
|
1. See the file INSTALL_Windows.txt (STEP 2) for how for instruction on
|
|
testing the C HDF5 library and non-hdf4-related tools.
|
|
|
|
2. To test Fortran HDF5 Library, run testhdf5_fortran.bat in the
|
|
hdf5\fortran\test directory
|
