The config directory

Intro

HDF5 can be configured using CMake.

Configuration information for the HDF5 library and tools is specific to the repository folders. Each subdirectory of the project has its own CMake build and test files. Basic library configuration will generally be found in the root's CMakeLists.txt with support for macros and settings in this config directory.

This directory contains a few important things:

  • Support files for optional components (in cmake)
  • Compiler and platform parameters (in flags)
  • Warning files (in *-warnings directories)
  • Toolchain files (in toolchain)
  • Sanitizer files (in sanitizer)
  • Example install scripts (in examples)
  • Installation support files (in install)

CMake is documented in the following in the root's release_docs folder files:

  • INSTALL
  • INSTALL_CMake.txt
  • USING_HDF5_CMake.txt
  • USING_HDF5_VS.txt
  • INSTALL_Windows.txt
  • USING_CMake_Examples.txt
