New feature.
Description:
Add two new batch files for HDF5 building and testing on Windows.
Solution:
1. Add hdf5build.bat: build hdf5 from command line, which has four opitions:
hdf5build build c library and tools only
hdf5build enablecpp build c/c++ libraries and tools
hdf5build enablefortran build c/fortran libraries and tools
hdf5build enableall build c/c++/fortran libraries and tools
2. Add hdf5bt.bat: this batch file calls hdf5build.bat and hdf5check.bat to
build and test hdf5 from command line. It also has four options:
hdf5bt build and test c library and tools only
hdf5bt enablecpp build and test c/c++ libraries and tools
hdf5bt enablefortran build and test c/fortran libraries and tools
hdf5bt enableall build and test c/c++/fortran libraries and tools
Platforms tested:
Windows 2000/XP.
Misc. update:

Please refer to the release_docs/INSTALL file for installation instructions.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This release is almost fully functional for the entire API defined in the
documentation, see the RELEASE.txt file in this directory for information
specific to this release of the library. The INSTALL file contains
instructions on compiling and installing the library. The INSTALL_parallel
file contains instructions on installing the parallel version of the
library. The INSTALL* files can be found in the release_docs/ directory.
Documentation for this release is in the html directory. Start with the
"index.html" in that directory.
Four mailing lists are currently set up for use with the HDF5
library.
hdf5 - For general discussion of the HDF5 library with
other users.
hdf5dev - For discussion of the HDF5 library development
with developers and other interested parties.
hdf5announce - For announcements of HDF5 related developments,
not a discussion list.
hdf5cvs - For checkin notices of code development on the library,
not a discussion list.
To subscribe to a list, send mail to "majordomo@ncsa.uiuc.edu",
with "subscribe <list>" in the _body_, not the Subject, of the message.
E.g., subscribe hdf5
Messages to be sent to the list should be sent to "<list>@ncsa.uiuc.edu".
Nearly daily code snapshots are now being provided at the following URL:
ftp://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/pub/outgoing/hdf5/snapshots
Please read the readme file in that directory before working with a library
snapshot.
The HDF5 website is located at http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/HDF5/
Bugs should be reported to hdfhelp@ncsa.uiuc.edu.
