Aquiring IEEEIO

IEEEIO is currently availible directly from this server.

Precompiled Binaries

Precompiled binaries of IEEEIO are availible for the following architectures. The versions of these binaries labeled +hdf also include the full HDF 4.1r1 library binaries for convenience.


Compiling IEEEIO

To compile IEEEIO you need the following The makefile sets up make parameters based on the identification of the machine using the 'uname' command. It currently recognizes the following architectures The Makefile is very small so you should take a look a it with a text editor to make certain that all of the parameters are correct for your machine. Most notably, if you want to be able to use the ieeeio libraries with HDF then you need to make certain that the correct paths to your HDF installation have been set.

Simply type gmake to build the default ieeeio library and utilities. Type gmake libhdfio.a to build the HDF interoperability libraries and related utilities.

To test the operation of of the library type gmake data3d.raw. This will build a test program that will write an IEEEIO file and then reopen it for reading. If this program runs successfully, then the library has been built successfully.
