HDFView 3.3.2 source and binaries are available here
HDFView 3.3.2 was built and tested with HDF5-1.14.4-3, HDF 4.3.0, and openjdk 21.
This release provides two ways to install the HDFView pre-built binary distribution for a platform:
- Using an application image. This method simply requires running the provided executable to obtain the software.
- Running an installer. This method runs an installer (eg .exe) that sets up file associations and menu items.
Once you have uncompressed the downloaded pre-built binary file, refer to the provided README file for details.
See Known Problems if you encounter any issues.
Known Problems In This Release
- Workaround for issue with launching HDFView: A path issue which causes HDFView to fail to launch can be resolved by using the included batch script in the binary under the app folder.
- If installing HDFView with the installer method, please be aware that the installer does NOT overwrite “hardcoded” associations. If there is a pre-existing user-defined file association, you must manually associate the extension with the HDFView application.
Please see the Release Notes for more information on known problems.
