*** Parallel vs. serial library
|
||||
The HDF5 library can be configured to use MPI and MPI-IO for
|
||||
parallelizm on a distributed multi-processor system. The easy
|
||||
way to do this is to have a properly installed parallel
|
||||
compiler (e.g., MPICH's mpicc or IBM's mpcc) and supply that
|
||||
executable as the value of the CC environment variable:
|
||||
parallelizm on a distributed multi-processor system. Read the
|
||||
file INSTALL_parallel for detailed explanations.
|
||||
|
||||
$ CC=mpcc ./configure
|
||||
$ CC=/usr/local/mpi/bin/mpicc ./configure
|
||||
|
||||
If no such wrapper script is available then you must specify
|
||||
your normal C compiler along with the distribution of
|
||||
MPI/MPI-IO which is to be used (values other than `mpich' will
|
||||
be added at a later date):
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./configure --enable-parallel=mpich
|
||||
|
||||
If the MPI/MPI-IO include files and/or libraries cannot be
|
||||
found by the compiler then their directories must be given as
|
||||
arguments to CPPFLAGS and/or LDFLAGS:
|
||||
|
||||
$ CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/mpi/include \
|
||||
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/mpi/lib/LINUX/ch_p4 \
|
||||
./configure --enable-parallel=mpich
|
||||
|
||||
If a parallel library is being built then configure attempts
|
||||
to determine how to run a parallel application on one
|
||||
processor and on many processors. If the compiler is mpicc
|
||||
and the user hasn't specified values for RUNSERIAL and
|
||||
RUNPARALLEL then configure chooses `mpirun' from the same
|
||||
directory as `mpicc':
|
||||
|
||||
RUNSERIAL: /usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np 1
|
||||
RUNPARALLEL: /usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np $${NPROCS:=2}
|
||||
|
||||
The `$${NPROCS:=2}' will be substituted with the value of the
|
||||
NPROCS environment variable at the time `make check' is run
|
||||
(or the value 2).

parallel version of HDF5 can run in a serial environment as long as
|

the appropriate MPI-IO and MPI header files and libraries are
|

available.
|
||||
|
||||
The parallel version of hdf5 can be build by generally following the
|

instructions in the INSTALL file for building a serial version and
|
||||
using `mpicc' as the C compiler. This can be done by setting the CC
|
||||
environment variable before invoking configure as with:
|

|
||||
$ CC=mpicc ./configure
|
||||
|
||||
If the mpicc compiler is not available then a parallel library can
|
||||
still be built as long as the appropriate header files and libraries
|
||||
can be found. If these files are part of the default compiler search
|
||||
paths then configuration is as simple as:
|

|
||||
$ ./configure --enable-parallel
|
||||
|
||||
Otherwise, if the MPI and MPI-IO header files or library cannot be
|
||||
found then the compiler search paths can be corrected, the files can
|

be moved, or configure can be told about the file locations. The
|

latter is done with something like:

HDF5 Install Instructions for Windows NT/95/98.
|
||||
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The instructions which follow assume that you will be using the the source
|
||||
code release 'zip' file (hdf5-1_2_0.zip).
|
||||
|
||||
The following sections discuss in detail installation procedures.
|
||||
|
||||
Building from Source Code Release (hdf5-1_2_0.zip)
|
||||
===============================================
|
||||
|
||||
STEP I: Preconditions
|
||||
|
||||
To build the HDF5 and tests, it is assumed that you have done the following:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Installed MicroSoft Developer Studio, and Visual C++ 5.0 or 6.0.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Set up a directory structure to unpack the library. For
|
||||
example:
|
||||
c:\ (any drive)
|
||||
MyHDFstuff\ (any folder name)
|
||||
|
||||
3. Copied the source distribution archive to that directory
|
||||
and unpacked it using the appropriate archiver options to
|
||||
create a directory hierarchy.
|
||||
|
||||
Run WinZip on hdf5-1_2_0.zip (the entire source tree).
|
||||
This creates a directory called 'hdf5' which
|
||||
contains several files and directories.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
STEP II: Building the Libraries and tests.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Unpack all.zip in 'hdf5'.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Invoke Microsoft Visual C++, go to "File" and select
|
||||
the "Open Workspace" option.
|
||||
|
||||
Then open the c:\myHDFstuff\hdf5\proj\all\all.dsw workspace.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Select "Build", then Select "Set Active Configuration".
|
||||
|
||||
On Windows platform select as the active configuration
|
||||
|
||||
"all -- Win32 Debug" to build debug versions of single-threaded
|
||||
static libraries, and tests.
|
||||
or
|
||||
|
||||
"all -- Win32 Release" to build release versions of single-threaded
|
||||
static libraries, and tests.
|
||||
|
||||
Select "Build" and "Build all.exe" to
|
||||
build the corresponding version of the HDF5 library.
|
||||
|
||||
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), ....
|
||||
|
||||
Warning messages can be ignored. The "all.exe" is never created,
|
||||
so it is OK.
|
||||
|
||||
When the debug or release build is done the directories listed
|
||||
below will contain the following files :
|
||||
|
||||
c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\proj\hdf5\debug -
|
||||
c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\proj\hdf5\release -

|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
Each test directory contains debug and release subdirectories with the
|
||||
corresponding tests.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
STEP III: TESTING THE BUILD
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
In a command prompt window run the test batch file which
|
||||
resides in the hdf5 directory to make sure that the library
|
||||
was built correctly.
|
||||
|
||||
The hdf5testDBG.bat file tests the debug version of the library and
|
||||
hdf5testREL.bat tests the release version of the library.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
STEP IV: BUILDING THE EXAMPLES
|
||||
|
||||
1. Invoke Microsoft Visual C++, go to "File" and select
|
||||
the "Open Workspace" option.
|
||||
Then open the c:\myHDFstuff\hdf5\examples\allexamples.dsw
|
||||
workspace.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Select "Build", then Select "Set Active Configuration".
|
||||
|
||||
On Windows platform select as the active configuration
|
||||
"allexamples -- Win32 Debug" to build debug versions of the examples.
|
||||
|
||||
or
|
||||
|
||||
"allexamples -- Win32 Release" to build release versions the examples.
|
||||
|
||||
Select "Build" and "Build allexamples.exe" to
|
||||
build the corresponding version of the examples.
|
||||
|
||||
When the debug build or release build is done there should be the
|
||||
following subdirectories in C:\myHDFstuff\hdf5\examples\
|
||||
|
||||
attributetest
|
||||
|
||||

||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
selecttest
|
||||
|
||||
writetest
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
3. Run the batch file "InstallExamples.bat" which resides in the top level directory. This file creates 2 new directories, examplesREL and examplesDEB, in the examples directory and places all the executables in it. Both the release and debug versions of the examples should be built before this step is done. The examples should be tested in these 2 new directories
|
||||
due to some dependencies between the examples.

||||

||||

BUILDING AN APPLICATION USING THE HDF5 LIBRARY - SOME HELPFUL POINTERS
|
||||
=====================================================================
|
||||
|
||||
If you are building an application that uses the HDF5 library
|
||||
the following locations will need to be specified for locating
|
||||
header files and linking in the HDF libraries:
|
||||
|
||||
<top-level HDF5 directory>\src
|
||||
|
||||
where <top-level HDF5 directory> may be
|
||||
C:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
MORE HELPFUL POINTERS
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Here are some notes that may be of help if you are not familiar
|
||||
with using the Visual C++ Development Environment.
|
||||
|
||||
Project name and location issues:
|
||||
|
||||
The files in all.zip must end up in the hdf5\ directory
|
||||
installed by hdf5-1_2_0.zip
|
||||
|
||||
If you must install all.dsw and all.dsp in another directory, relative
|
||||
to hdf5\ , you will be asked to locate the sub-project files,
|
||||
when you open the project all.dsw.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want to rename all (the entire project), you will need to modify
|
||||
two files all.dsw and all.dsp as text (contrary to the explicit warnings
|
||||
in the files).
|
||||
|
||||
You can also modify all.dsw and all.dsp as text, to allow these 2 files
|
||||
to be installed in another directory.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Settings... details:
|
||||
|
||||
If you create your own project, the necessary settings can be
|
||||
read from the all.dsp file(as text), or from the Project Settings in
|
||||
the Developer Studio project settings dialog.

---------------------
|
||||
[Work in progress. Please send mail to hdfparallel@ncsa.uiuc.edu.]
|
||||
The HDF5 library can be configured to use MPI and MPI-IO for
|
||||
parallelizm on a distributed multi-processor system. The easy
|
||||
way to do this is to have a properly installed parallel
|
||||
compiler (e.g., MPICH's mpicc or IBM's mpcc) and supply that
|
||||
executable as the value of the CC environment variable:
|
||||
|
||||
$ CC=mpcc ./configure
|
||||
$ CC=/usr/local/mpi/bin/mpicc ./configure
|
||||
|
||||
If no such wrapper script is available then you must specify
|
||||
your normal C compiler along with the distribution of
|
||||
MPI/MPI-IO which is to be used (values other than `mpich' will
|
||||
be added at a later date):
|
||||
|
||||
$ ./configure --enable-parallel=mpich
|
||||
|
||||
If the MPI/MPI-IO include files and/or libraries cannot be
|
||||
found by the compiler then their directories must be given as
|
||||
arguments to CPPFLAGS and/or LDFLAGS:
|
||||
|
||||
$ CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/mpi/include \
|
||||
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/mpi/lib/LINUX/ch_p4 \
|
||||
./configure --enable-parallel=mpich
|
||||
|
||||
If a parallel library is being built then configure attempts
|
||||
to determine how to run a parallel application on one
|
||||
processor and on many processors. If the compiler is mpicc
|
||||
and the user hasn't specified values for RUNSERIAL and
|
||||
RUNPARALLEL then configure chooses `mpirun' from the same
|
||||
directory as `mpicc':
|
||||
|
||||
RUNSERIAL: /usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np 1
|
||||
RUNPARALLEL: /usr/local/mpi/bin/mpirun -np $${NPROCS:=2}
|
||||
|
||||
The `$${NPROCS:=2}' will be substituted with the value of the
|
||||
NPROCS environment variable at the time `make check' is run
|
||||
(or the value 2).
