Hello, First congratulations on the new release. I would like some clarifications on the "Supported" platform changes. Specifically the "VS2008 and Windows XP". I can read that in 2 different ways:
1: The *combination* of VS2008 running on Windows XP is deprecated 2: VS2008 on *any* version of Windows AND Windows XP Thanks ___________________________________________________________ Mike Jackson Principal Software Engineer BlueQuartz Software Dayton, Ohio [email protected] www.bluequartz.net On Nov 13, 2012, at 3:18 PM, Barbara Jones wrote: > > To view from a browser, see: > http://www.hdfgroup.org/newsletters/newsletter129.html > > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > The HDF Group Home Page: http://hdfgroup.org/ > Helpdesk & Mailing Lists Info: http://hdfgroup.org/services/support.html > -------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Newsletter #129 > November 13, 2012 > > CONTENTS: > > - Release of HDF5-1.8.10 > .
