I am trying to build hdf5 for ms-windows. I downloaded the hdf5_1.4.7.tar.gz, gunzipped it and got a tar file. I extracted everything into a directory tree called hdf5. I also found a Makevars.win and libhdf5.def in the R help archives from March 2002. I put those two in hdf5 as well.
I issued the command Rcmd build --binary hdf5 but got this message complaining it can't find hdf5.h along with subsequent errors. making DLL ... making hdf5.d from hdf5.c hdf5.c:24:18: hdf5.h: No such file or directory make[2]: *** [hdf5.d] Error 1 make[1]: *** [src/hdf5.dll] Error 2 make: *** [pkg-hdf5] Error 2 make: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/PROGRA~1/R/rw1062/src/gnuwin32' *** Installation of hdf5 failed *** What should I do? ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
