<h1>HDF5 Build and Install Instructions for Windows XP with MSVS .NET 2003</h1>
<h1>(Short Version)</h1>
<hr class="first" >
<p class="note">Notes:</p>
<p>1. This short instruction is written for users who want to quickly
build HDF5 library and tools from the HDF5 source code package
with Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 but do not want to know HDF5
building and installation details on Windows XP.</p>
<P>2. For detailed HDF5 build and install information, or if you have
trouble following any steps in the instructions, please refer to
INSTALL_Windows.html for further information.</P>
<p>3. For users who would like to build and test HDF5 package from the
command line, please refer to
INSATLL_Windows_From_Command_Line.txt.</p>
<p>4. For .Net and Intel users, If&nbsp; you are not in building HDF5 with
Thread-Safe Feature, ttsafedll.dsp should be turned off always.</p>
<p class="note">Warnings: Please read CAREFULLY about <a href="http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/windows/INSTALL_Windows.html#preconditions" target="_blank">
HDF5 build and install preconditions and notes</a> before starting below procedures.</p>
<hr class="second" >
<h2>Preconditions:</h2>
<hr class="second" >
<h3>a. Setup path Visual Studio .Net 2003 Compiler. </h3>
<p> Open "System" in Control Panel.</p>
<p>On the "Advanced" tab, click "Environment Variables", click
"Path" in the "System variables" box, then click "Edit" and
add your Visual C++ .Net path (For example,
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE)
into "Variable Value" and click "OK". </p>
<h3>b. Set up path for external libraries and headers</h3>
<p>Skip this part if you don't want to use ANY compression features
provided by HDF5. Read <A href="http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/windows/INSTALL_Windows.html#section5" target="_blank">Section V in INSTALL_WINDOWS.html</A>.
</p>
<p>You have to read this part even if you want to only use Zlib
or Szip. You also need to read <A href="http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/windows/INSTALL_Windows.html#section5" target=_blank>Section V in INSTALL_WINDOWS.html</A> . </p><p>Invoke Microsoft Visual C++ .Net and go to "Tools" and select
"Options". In the left pane of "Option" window poped up,
choose and extend "Projects", Click on "VC++ Directories".
In the right pane, Find the box "Show directories for", choose
"Include files", if you can not find your Zlib and Szip
header path
(for example, c:\zlib122\include, c:\szip\include)
from the directory list, add the header path
(c:\zlib122\include, c:\szip\include) to the
included directories. </p><p>Find the box "Show directories for", choose "Library files",
If you cannot find your Zlib and Szip library path
(for example, c:\zlib122\lib, c:\szip\dll)
from the directory list, add the library path
(c:\zlib122\lib, c:\szip\dll) to the library directories. </p>
<hr class="second" >
<h2>STEP 1: Building HDF5 Libraries and Tools</h2>
<hr class="second" >
<h3>1. Open all.dsw workspace</h3><p class="note">Notes:</p><p>Notes: all.sln is for command use only. Please open all.dsw not all.sln.</p><p>Invoke Microsoft Visual C++ .Net 2003. From the main
menu, go to "File" and select "Open Solution". In
the "Open Solution" window, Change "Files of type" to
"All Project Files". Choose "all.dsw" under the directory
c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\windows\proj\all. In the pop up window,
chooise "Yes To All" to convert all project files to Visual
C++ .Net project format.</p>
<h3>2. Building HDF5 C and C++ Libraries </h3><p>Users can choose the desirable libraries to be built according
to the following describtion.</p> <ul class="intable"> <li><h4>2.1 If you don't want to build HDF5 C++ Libraries</h4> <p>Go to "Build" and select "Configuration Manager". Choose "Release"

<h2> STEP 2: Testing HDF5 Libraries and Tools </h2><hr class="second" >
<p>HDF5 libraries and tools should be tested to make sure that they were
built correctly.</p><p>HDF5 libraries and tools can be tested with hdf5check.bat batch file
in c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5 directory.</p><p>hdf5check.bat has four options:</p>
<div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center">
<table border="1" style="BORDER-RIGHT: blue thin solid; BORDER-TOP: blue thin solid; BORDER-LEFT: blue thin solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: blue thin solid">
<tr>
<th>Options</th>
<th>Illustration</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><p>hdf5check</p></td>
<td><p>test HDF5 C library and tools only</p></td>

<tr>
<td><p>hdf5check enablecpp</p></td>
<td><p>test HDF5 C/C++ libraries and tools.</p>
</td>

</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
<p>Invoke a command prompt window and run hdf5check with appropriate
options.</p>
<p>Test results are saved into file:</p>
<ul class="normal">
<li>c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\check_results.txt</li>
</ul>
<p>Check check_results.txt and there should be no failures at all.</p>
