[Pytables-users] Building/Compiling HDF5 Source

[kevin l. <lke...@ya...>]

Being more  of a financial analyst and only a studying
programmer, I am having difficulty.. having never
compiled source code before. 

The INSTALL_Windows mentions that VS C++ 6.0 or Intel
C Compiler be used for this process. I am trying to
avoid anymore MS products, so I would like to use the
open source 'Dev-C++' (or similiar) software to build
HDF5 (do to the Patch problems with the pre-built
binaries).

My questions are is this possible and can you give me
a few pointers as to how I do this? I very much have a
need for pyTables and at this point, I am kind of
stuck.

Thank you for any help you might provide me.
I currently have Windows XP and an Intel proccessor.
Kevin
