[gdal-dev] Trouble Building GDAL with HDF5

[Ivan Lucena]

Christopher,

I believe that this problem has to do with how you build the HDF5 library. Are you building it yourself

I fight with that same problem on Linux a couple of months ago, after an HDF5 update.

The solution was to include Zlib into the HDF5 building configuration.

I don't have access to those machines anymore but on my OSX machine I am building HDF5 with those options:

$ ./configure --with-zlib=/usr/local/opt/zlib
$ make
$ make install

You can get Zlib source code from zlib.net and do the same or better yet, get the HDF5 Windows installer from HDFGroup.org. That works fine for me.

Regards,

Ivan

Subject: [gdal-dev] Trouble Building GDAL with HDF5

I am trying to build GDAL with HDF5 usability on a Windows 7 64-bit computer using Visual Studio Community Edition 2017. I have followed a YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yf8rYOfvZjY) for getting the vcxproj files, but get stuck when trying to build the main project. The command I use is .\generate_vcxproj.bat 15.0 64 gdal_vs2017. Currently, I am getting six errors and 11 warnings. I have attached the nmake.opt file I use. I do not have a nmake.local file currently. The errors are as follows:

LNK1120 3 unresolved externals
LNK2019 unresolved external symbol SZ_BufftoBuffCompress referenced in function H5Z_filter_szip
LNK2019 unresolved external symbol SZ_BufftoBuffDecompress referenced in function H5Z_filter_szip
LNK2019 unresolved external symbol SZ_encoder_enabled referenced in function H5Z_init_package
U1077 -> "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.14.26428\bin\HostX86\x64\link.EXE"' : return code '0x460'
MSB0373 The command "nmake -f makefile.vc<http://makefile.vc> MSVC_VER=1910 WIN64=1 DEBUG=1 WITH_PDB=1" exited with code 2.

This warning could also be a clue:
LNK4098 defaultlib 'MSVCRT' conflicts with use of other libs; use /NODEFAULTLIB:library

More details for this issue can be found on the YouTube video link above under the Comments section. Any help would be appreciated!
