Installing HDF5 on Mac OSX

Accelerated Computing HPC Compilers Legacy PGI Compilers
#1

Hi,

I would like some advice on how to install HDF5 on a Mac with PGI 10.8. So far I have tried hdf5-1.6.7 and hdf5-1.8.3 and hdf5-1.8.5 with PGI 10.8 with varying degrees of failure.

I have a trial PGI license with the key set up properly, and have successfully compiled HDF5 on linux many times.

The configure part works, but make fails.

Any advice please?

Thanks,
Sean

The configuration of hdf5 does not support PGI compilers on Mac OS X. I am not really sure it will work if it passes the make phase. I will search to see if there is a workaround.
