1.Obtaining HDF5
|
|
|
|
Please see INSTALL file in this directory for downloading instructions.
|
|
|
|
2. Building and testing HDF5 C, Fortran and C++ libraries and utilties.
|
|
|
|
IMPORTANT: This version REQUIRES GNU ZLIB library to be installed
|
|
on a system. You may download the source code from
|
|
http://www.zlib.net/
|
|
|
|
- Use tar command to untar HDF5 source ball
|
|
|
|
tar -xvf hdf5-1.8.0.tar
|
|
|
|
- Change default directory to [.hdf5-1.8.0.vms]
|
|
- Edit make.com:
|
|
specify path to ZLIB library
|
|
if necessary, modify compilation flags
|
|
Do NOT REMOVE /define=H5_VMS and /standard=strict_ansi qualifiers.
|
|
- Run build.com command file
|
|
@build
|
|
We recommend to use batch queue to build and test this distribution.
|
|
The command file runs make.com and builds
|
|
C library, tests, and utilities
|
|
Fortran library and tests
|
|
C++ library and tests
|
|
It also runs test scripts to test C, Fortran and C++ libraries, and
|
|
h5dump, h5diff, h5ls, h5repack and h5import utilties.
|
|
|
|
3. Installing HDF5 libraries
|
|
|
|
Modify install.com file to specify installation directory and run
|
|
@install
|
|
to install HDF5 C, Fortran, and C++ libraries, and utilities.
|
|
The script will create the directories shown below in the
|
|
installation directory:
|
|
|
|
[.HDF5]...
|
|
[.HDF5.INCLUDE]
|
|
[.HDF5.LIB]
|
|
[.HDF5.BIN]
|
|
[.HDF5.EXAMPLES]
|
|
[.HDF5.EXAMPLES.C]
|
|
[.HDF5.EXAMPLES.F90]
|
|
[.HDF5.EXAMPLES.CXX]
|
|
|
|
[.HDF5.EXAMPLES.*] directories contain make.com and check.com files
|
|
to build examples against the installed libraries and to verify
|
|
the installation.
|
|
|
|
3. Known problems
|
|
|
|
- dsets test fails for test_scleoffset_double and
|
|
test_scleoffset_double_2 tests when G_FLOAT double is used
|
|
- There is no support for szip compression filter.
|
|
- Fortran multifile driver test fails; similar C test passes.
