* Fix MPI Fortran configuration for HDF5Examples (#6206) When building Fortran parallel examples without MPI wrappers, the compiler couldn't find mpi.mod because MPI_Fortran_INCLUDE_DIRS was not populated. This occurred because find_package(MPI) was only called for C, not Fortran. Added enable_language(Fortran) and find_package(MPI REQUIRED COMPONENTS Fortran) to properly configure MPI for Fortran examples, ensuring MPI include directories and libraries are correctly set. * Adds RFCs to the RFC table (#6190) * Added two RFCs to the RFC table "Adding support for digitally signed plugins to HDF5" " Write-Ahead log" * Updated to use the ACM link * Add HDF5 2.0.0 Library Migration Guide (#6183) * Add HDF5 2.0.0 Library Migration Guide * Revise HDF5 migration guide for version 2.0.0 Use 2.0.0 consistently. * Clarify API changes in HDF5 2.0.0 Migration Guide * Fixes the "multiple @param documentation sections" doxygen warnings (#6195) Addresses the "multiple @ param documentation sections" warnings are caused by the interaction of three things: 1. MACRO_EXPANSION = YES with EXPAND_ONLY_PREDEF = NO in Doxyfile.in 2. Versioned API macros in H5version.h like: \def documentation in APIVersions.dox like: 3. \def H5Tarray_create \api_vers_2{H5Tarray_create,H5Tarray_create1,H5Tarray_create2} Because Doxygen expands all macros, it sees H5Tarray_create as an alias for H5Tarray_create1. It then associates documentation from both the \def block (for the macro) and the function's own doc block (with \param entries) with the same function — resulting in "multiple @ param documentation sections." * Update Doxygen version from 1.16.0 to 1.16.1 Use Doxygen 1.16.1 for all platforms. This version includes the latest bug fixes and improvements while maintaining compatibility with our documentation format. * Fix Windows Doxygen installation for version 1.16.1 Handle different Windows binary naming conventions across Doxygen versions: - 1.16.1 uses: doxygen-VERSION.windows.x64.bin.zip - 1.16.0 uses: doxygen-VERSION.x64.bin.zip Try the newer naming convention first, then fall back to the older one if the download fails. This ensures compatibility across versions. * Use ssciwr/doxygen-install in setup-doxygen action Replace direct installation of official Doxygen binaries with ssciwr/doxygen-install action. This avoids Java documentation parsing errors that occur with official binaries but not with distribution builds. The setup-doxygen action now serves as a thin wrapper around ssciwr/doxygen-install@f13be16c83 (v1), using commit hash for security and reproducibility. * Remove redundant version specification from workflows The setup-doxygen action already has a default version (1.16.1), so explicit version specification in workflows is unnecessary. This follows DRY principles and makes version updates simpler. * Updates to #6205 (#6208) * Fix MPI Fortran configuration for HDF5Examples (#6205) When building Fortran parallel examples standalone without MPI wrappers, the compiler cannot find mpi.mod because MPI_Fortran_INCLUDE_DIRS is not populated. * Use MPI::MPI_Fortran imported target instead of raw MPI variables Replace manual MPI_Fortran_LIBRARIES, MPI_Fortran_LINK_FLAGS, and MPI_Fortran_INCLUDE_DIRS usage with the MPI::MPI_Fortran imported target, which transitively carries all include dirs, compile flags, and link flags. This eliminates the CMAKE_Fortran_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS hack and the manual target_include_directories in H5PAR. * Update nvhpc version to 26.1 with CUDA version 13.1. (#6213) # branches: [develop] * Inherit Debug C build flags in Developer build mode (#6182) * Bump the github-actions group across 1 directory with 11 updates (#6215) * Bump the github-actions group across 1 directory with 11 updates Bumps the github-actions group with 11 updates in the / directory: | Package | From | To | | --- | --- | --- | | [actions/cache](https://github.com/actions/cache) | `5.0.1` | `5.0.3` | | [lukka/get-cmake](https://github.com/lukka/get-cmake) | `4.2.1` | `4.2.3` | | [softwareforgood/check-artifact-v4-existence](https://github.com/softwareforgood/check-artifact-v4-existence) | `0.3.0` | `0.4.1` | | [github/codeql-action](https://github.com/github/codeql-action) | `3.31.9` | `4.32.2` | | [azure/trusted-signing-action](https://github.com/azure/trusted-signing-action) | `0.5.11` | `1.1.0` | | [cygwin/cygwin-install-action](https://github.com/cygwin/cygwin-install-action) | `7d2dc1e241644c3318bed9ec74115d1929baa681` | `2566376092c4e280f21131be027af3f5bb2420a4` | | [aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials](https://github.com/aws-actions/configure-aws-credentials) | `5.1.1` | `6.0.0` | | [vmactions/freebsd-vm](https://github.com/vmactions/freebsd-vm) | `1.3.4` | `1.4.2` | | [vmactions/openbsd-vm](https://github.com/vmactions/openbsd-vm) | `1.3.1` | `1.3.5` | | [mpi4py/setup-mpi](https://github.com/mpi4py/setup-mpi) | `1.4.1` | `1.4.2` | | [actions/setup-python](https://github.com/actions/setup-python) | `6.1.0` | `6.2.0` | vmactions/openbsd-vm@d6c29ce1b4 (`1.3.5`) failed to run ssh on the github runner. 271a1ba62300483cfc58345ff9f425f1349a2cab for v1.3.4 was used instead. * Fix issue with some Subfiling VFD test files not getting deleted (#6212) * CMake: Fix Fortran cross-compilation support Refactor the cross-compilation infrastructure to rely on the standard CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR variable instead of the custom CROSSCOMPILING_PATH environment hack. Key changes: - Removed `ENVIRONMENT "${CROSSCOMPILING_PATH}"` from all test definitions. - Updated custom commands (e.g., H5match_types, H5_gen) to invoke the emulator explicitly when cross-compiling. - Updated ConfigureChecks.cmake and HDF5UseFortran.cmake to enable `try_run` checks when an emulator is defined. - Added config/toolchain/mingw-w64-x86-64-wine.sh wrapper to automatically locate MinGW runtime libraries (like libgfortran) for Wine execution. - Cleaned up toolchain files to remove hardcoded emulator paths, deferring configuration to the build environment. * Add Doxygen setup that results in missing Doygen documentation. (#6217) * Added setup-doxygen action in ctest.yml Ubuntu gcc workflow. * Also added actions/checkout for setup-doxygen. * Fixes link checker failure (#6219) Removed https:// as a workaround to avoid error by the link checker. * Remove force-setting of ZLIB_USE_EXTERNAL / SZIP_USE_EXTERNAL (#6222) Removes the force-setting of ZLIB_USE_EXTERNAL and SZIP_USE_EXTERNAL to ON when HDF5_ALLOW_EXTERNAL_SUPPORT is GIT or TGZ so that zlib and szip can be independently built from the system or externally as desired * Truncate Subfiling VFD's stub file when truncating subfiles (#6210) Ensure that the Subfiling VFD's stub file gets truncated when subfiles are being truncated to avoid a potentially unreadable file when the EOF doesn't match the stored EOF value Co-authored-by: Larry Knox <lrknox@hdfgroup.org> * Add CMake function to extract pkg-config info from libraries (#6220) * Consistent extension for C++ (#6214) Except for this file, all use cpp instead of cxx.

HDF5 Examples
Please refer to the Using_CMake.txt file for CMake instructions.
Note that this HDF5Examples directory structure is also provided as a stand-alone project distributed with library binaries as well as compiled and tested during a HDF5 Library build.
This repository contains a high-performance library's example code that demonstrate the HDF5® data model API. The HDF5® data model has been adopted across many industries and this implementation has become a de facto data management standard in science, engineering, and research communities worldwide.
The HDF Group is the developer, maintainer, and steward of HDF5 software. Find more information about The HDF Group, the HDF5 Community, and other HDF5 software projects, tools, and services at The HDF Group's website.
We suggest using the presets method with CMake for building the examples. However, if you prefer to use the h5cc pkg-config wrappers, you can use the following commands to build the examples:
export HDF5_HOME="hdf5 installation root"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$HDF5_HOME/lib/pkgconfig"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$HDF5_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
export PATH="$HDF5_HOME/bin:$PATH"
Then, you can compile the examples with:
h5cc -o example1 example1.c
h5c++ -o example2 example2.cpp
h5fc -o example3 example3.f90
For Java examples with Maven integration, see the JAVA/README-MAVEN.md file for complete instructions on using the org.hdfgroup:hdf5-java-examples Maven artifact.
The test-pc.sh script can test the examples with the h5*cc pkg-config wrappers with: cd <path to examples> export HDF5_HOME="hdf5 installation root"; sh ./test-pc.sh <path to examples> <path to build dir> . Notice that period (.) at the end of the command is important, it tells the script to use the current directory as the source directory.
