[hdf-forum] The use of the precompiled binaries for Windows

[Becker, Thomas]

Dear all,

I am quite new to HDF files and since my new employer works an Windows machines I have a bit of a problem.
We are getting every day a couple of HDF5 files in and I would like to read and extract some informations out of them. I do not really want to program anything using the functions of HDF5 1.8.1 but I would like to use e.g. PyTables to establish an workflow in Python in combination with ArcGIS.

Hence I would like to know what do I have to do to get this to work in Windows? I downloaded the binaries already but how to get further?

At home an my Linux machine all the stuff like GDAL or R can read HDF5 out of the box but on a Windows machine I am a bit lost.

Thanks for your help,

Thomas
