Notes: This short instruction is written for users who want to quickly build
|
|
|
|
HDF5 library and tools from the HDF5 source code package using the
|
|
|
|
CMake tools.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
More information about using CMake can be found at the KitWare site,
|
|
|
|
www.cmake.org.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CMake uses the command line, however the visual CMake tool is
|
|
|
|
recommended for the configuration step. The steps are similiar for
|
|
|
|
all the operating systems supported by CMake.
|
|
|
|

|
|
NOTES:
|
2011-01-26 04:40:41 +08:00
|
|
|
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
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
before the next release.
|
|
|
|
|
2011-01-26 04:40:41 +08:00
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
2011-08-25 23:08:29 +08:00
|
|
|
3. If you are building HDF5 on Windows, do NOT use or execute any
|
|
|
|
files from the windows folder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Build and test results can be submitted to our CDash server at:
|
|
|
|
cdash.hdfgroup.uiuc.edu.
|
2011-01-26 04:40:41 +08:00
|
|
|
Please read the HDF and CDash document at:
|

|
========================================================================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. We suggest you obtain the latest CMake for windows from the Kitware
|
2011-03-15 03:13:15 +08:00
|
|
|
web site. The HDF5 1.8.x product requires CMake version 2.8.4.
|
2010-05-27 00:47:12 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2011-01-26 04:40:41 +08:00
|
|
|
2. If you plan to use Zlib or Szip;
|
|
|
|
A. Download the packages and install them
|
|
|
|
in a central location. For example on Windows, create a folder extlibs
|
|
|
|
and install the packages there. Windows users should also read Section V
|
|
|
|
in INSTALL_Windows.txt.
|
|
|
|
B. Use source packages from a SVN server by adding the following CMake
|
|
|
|
options:
|
|
|
|
HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT:STRING="SVN"
|
|
|
|
ZLIB_SVN_URL:STRING="http://some_location/zlib/trunk"
|
|
|
|
SZIP_SVN_URL:STRING="http://some_location/szip/trunk"
|
|
|
|
where "some_location" is the URL to the SVN repository.
|
|
|
|
C. Use source packages from a compressed file by adding the following CMake
|
|
|
|
options:
|
|
|
|
HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT:STRING="TGZ"
|
2011-01-26 05:17:54 +08:00
|
|
|
ZLIB_TGZ_NAME:STRING="zlib_src.ext"
|
|
|
|
SZIP_TGZ_NAME:STRING="szip_src.ext"
|
|
|
|
TGZ_PATH:STRING="some_location"
|
2011-01-26 04:40:41 +08:00
|
|
|
where "some_location" is the URL or full path to the compressed file and
|
|
|
|
ext is the type of compression file.

Building HDF5 C/C++ Libraries 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).
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
OPTIONAL:
|
|
|
|
Users can perform the configuration step without using the visual cmake-gui
|
|
|
|
program. We use the file cacheinit.cmake in the config/cmake folder for
|
|
|
|
our testing. This file enables all the basic options and we turn specific
|
|
|
|
options on or off for testing using the following command line within the build
|
|
|
|
directory:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cmake -C <sourcepath>/config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake -G "<generator>" [-D<options>] <sourcepath>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Where <generator> is
|
|
|
|
* Borland Makefiles
|
|
|
|
* MSYS Makefiles
|
|
|
|
* MinGW Makefiles
|
|
|
|
* NMake Makefiles
|
|
|
|
* Unix Makefiles
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
* Visual Studio 9 2008 Win64
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<options> is:
|
|
|
|
* SZIP_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=<path to szip includes directory>
|
|
|
|
* SZIP_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=<path to szip/library file>
|

2. Configure the cache settings
|
|
|
|
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
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.
|
2010-05-27 00:47:12 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
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.
|
2010-05-27 00:47:12 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
On Windows, if you are using a Visual Studio generator, the solution and
|
|
|
|
project files will be created in the build folder.
|
2010-05-27 00:47:12 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
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 -C ../config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008" \
|
|
|
|
-DHDF5_ENABLE_SZIP_SUPPORT:BOOL=OFF -DHDF5_ENABLE_Z_LIB_SUPPORT:BOOL=OFF ..
|
2010-05-27 00:47:12 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2011-10-26 00:52:58 +08:00
|
|
|
2.3 On Windows, if you are using a VS 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
|
|
|
|
|
2010-05-27 00:47:12 +08:00
|
|
|
3. Build HDF5
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
2010-10-15 05:58:35 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2011-01-26 22:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
3.2.1 The external libraries (zlib and szip) can be configured
|
2010-10-15 05:58:35 +08:00
|
|
|
to allow building the libraries by downloading from a SVN repository.
|
|
|
|
The option is 'HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT'; by adding the following
|
|
|
|
configuration option:
|
|
|
|
-DHDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT:STRING="SVN"
|
|
|
|
|
2011-01-26 04:40:41 +08:00
|
|
|
The options to control the SVN URL (config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake file):
|
2010-10-15 05:58:35 +08:00
|
|
|
ZLIB_SVN_URL:STRING="http://svn.hdfgroup.uiuc.edu/zlib/trunk"
|
|
|
|
SZIP_SVN_URL:STRING="http://svn.hdfgroup.uiuc.edu/szip/trunk"
|
2011-01-26 04:40:41 +08:00
|
|
|
These should be changed to your location.
|
|
|
|
|
2011-01-26 22:09:45 +08:00
|
|
|
3.2.2 Or the external libraries (zlib and szip) can be configured
|
2011-01-26 04:40:41 +08:00
|
|
|
to allow building the libraries by using a compressed file.
|
|
|
|
The option is 'HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT'; by adding the following
|
|
|
|
configuration option:
|
|
|
|
-DHDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT:STRING="TGZ"
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The options to control the SVN URL (config/cmake/cacheinit.cmake file):
|
2011-01-26 05:17:54 +08:00
|
|
|
ZLIB_TGZ_NAME:STRING="zlib_src.ext"
|
|
|
|
SZIP_TGZ_NAME:STRING="szip_src.ext"
|
|
|
|
TGZ_PATH:STRING="some_location"
|
2011-01-26 04:40:41 +08:00
|
|
|
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 like:
|
|
|
|
.bz2, .tar, .tar.gz, .tgz, .zip
|
2010-05-27 00:47:12 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Packaging HDF5
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To package the build into a simple installer using the NullSoft installer NSIS
|
|
|
|
on Windows, or into compressed files (.tar.gz, .sh, .zip), use the CPack tool.
|
|
|
|
|
2011-01-26 04:40:41 +08:00
|
|
|
To package the build, navigate to your build directory and execute;
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2010-09-21 05:00:36 +08:00
|
|
|
cpack -C {Debug | Release} CPackConfig.cmake
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: We have just introduced the packaging capability and it has not been
|
|
|
|
extensively tested. Please send us comments on how it can be improved.
|
2011-08-25 23:08:29 +08:00
|
|
|
See NSIS note 8 of this document.
|
2011-10-18 03:49:06 +08:00
|
|
|
Also, if you are using a VS Express version or do not want to enable
|
|
|
|
the packaging components, set HDF5_NO_PACKAGES to ON (on the command
|
|
|
|
line add -DHDF5_NO_PACKAGES:BOOL=ON)
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
|
2010-10-15 05:58:35 +08:00
|
|
|
6. The files that support building HDF5 with CMake are all the files in the
|
2010-09-21 01:27:29 +08:00
|
|
|
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.

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.
