installing HDF4.2.10 in the MAC OS X version 10.9.5

Dear Users,

I am trying to install HDF4 in my computer and I did same as the following precesses:

1. get and install JPEG (jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz) and zlib (zlib-1.2.8.tar.gz)
2. get hdf-4.2.10.tar.gz
3. unzip hdf-4.2.10.tar.gz and go into the directory
4. .configure /configure --disable-fortran --enable-production --enable-shared --disable-netcdf --with-zlib=/usr --with-jpeg=/usr/local --prefix=/usr/local/hdf4
5. make >& make.out
6. make check >& check.out
7. make install

to get vdata from hdf files.
I have hdf4 directory in the location /usr/local and in the directory I have bin, include extra.

However, I think it did not installed in my computer because when I type hep dumpvd, it says “command not found”. I tried to type the other command but it keeps saying “command not found”.

I have installed HDF5 in my computer.

Would you be able to tell me what I need to do to make it work???

I do appreciate any comments and helps.

Thank you in advance

Hi, Sunmin!

Try the following package that includes everything (szip, zlib,
jpeg-6b) with build & install script:

http://www.hdfgroup.uiuc.edu/ftp/pub/outgoing/h4map/src/h4map.tar.gz

1) Unpack the package using $tar –zxvf h4map.tar.gz.

2) Change directory to unpacked h4map/ and run $./BUILD_AND_INSTALL
shell script. The script is included in the package.

3) Check the hdp binary under h4map/install/bin directory.

Please let me know if it doesn't work.

Hi Binh-Minh

Yes I did ./configured --prefix=/usr/local after that hdf4 directory created.

HDF Barbara helped me and now it seems like working (no error or warning message) but still I cannot get data from the file.

Thank you

?Hi Sun,

I'm glad Barbara was able to help you get rid of the error.

Would you please elaborate a little more about you cannot get data from the file? Did you mean "hdp dumpvd <filename>" did not display any data to the screen? Could you try "hdp list <filename>" to see if you have any vdata in the file?

Thanks,

Binh-Minh

Hello, Binh-Minh

I am trying to get vdata from CALIPSO level2 data using NCL. According to the NCL website (https://www.ncl.ucar.edu/Applications/calipso.shtml / calipso_3.ncl), NCL cannot read vdata and I need to use the command “hdp dumpvd” to read vdata from the file. I finally read it. The NCL website says that I need to modify the vdata and I tried. However, I am still not able to get “liar_altitude.txt” file to create plots for CALIPSO.

Could you suggest me any advice?

Thank you for your help
