Hi, I joyfully tried installing PyTables on 32-bit Win XP right with easy_setup now only to encounter an error during installation complaining about HDF5 not present.
So I went to the HDF5 web-site and I got highly confused by all the different versions of HDF5, which is available. First of all, there is HDF5 1.8.3 and 1.6.9. Ver. 1.8.3 is recommended for new users, so I guess I should use this version. Next, there are three different versions of HDF5 for Windows XP, 32-bits, all built with different compilers: Cygwin gcc, g95 VS 2005 c, c++, Intel Fortran 9.1 VS 2008 c, c++, Intel Fortran 10.1 I am at a loss which version I should choose, and i cannot find any help/advice on the PyTables wiki. Can you recommend one compilation over others for optimal use with PyTables?
