Hdf5

WARNING: The last edit of this page is over two years old. The information on this page may be out-of-date.

To compile a serial program that uses HDF5, use module to set your paths correctly, then link the libraries at compile time. In this example, the imaginary test.c uses both the base HDF5 libraries and the newer high-level routines (i.e. it has #include "hdf5.h" and #include "hdf5_hl.h"), so needs libhdf5 and libhdf5_hl:

 module purge
 module load intel hdf5/184-p1-v18-serial

 icc -o test test.c -lhdf5_hl -lhdf5 -limf
 #or, if you prefer to be explicit,
 icc -o test test.c -L${SCINET_HDF5_LIB} -lhdf5_hl -lhdf5 -limf

And remember when you run the program that you must have loaded module hdf5/184-p1-v18-serial
