I'm new to HDF5 and I want to read data from an existing HDF5 file with a C# program. I'm using VS2008.
I found the instructions at http://hdf5.net/ and did download the two ZIP files.
I did run the HDF5-1.8.9-win32.exe.
Then I created a new project in VS2008 and copied the five DLL files into my project folder.
Then I added a reference to HDF5DotNet.dll to my project.
Now I get the error message "The referenced component 'HDF5DotNet' could not be found".
What am I making wrong?
Are there any step-by-step instructions how to get a sample program running with VS2008?

I think the problem is that this DLL was made for VS2010, but I have VS2008. Where can I find the DLL's for VS2008?
The DLLs were made for .NET 4, not a particular version of Visual Studio.
(There are also separate DLLs for x86 and x64.)
Make sure in your project settings that you are building against the .NET 4
runtime and not 2, or 3.5.

When I compile my C# program, I get this warning:
"Resolved file has a bad image, no metadata, or is otherwise inaccessible.
Could not load file or assembly 'C:\Documents and Settings\PhaseCam\My
Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\HDF5_test1\HDF5_test1\HDF5DotNet.dll'

I have .NET 4.0 installed on that computer, but VS2008 allows me only to choose between 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5. Does that mean it's impossible to read a HDF5 file with VS2008?
Michael, I don't have VS2008 and can't help you there. VS2008 is just a
vehicle.
Have you ever used a compiler from the command line? The C# compiler is part
of
the .NET framework (csc.exe in
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319 on my machine).
and works just fine in a DOS shell or PowerShell. No need for VS2008.
Reading HDF5 files has nothing to do with VS2008.
G.
(*) Just download the latest VSXXXX Express edition and move on.
Alternatively, you can compile HDF5DotNet with .NET 2 or 3.5 yourself
and use that with VS2008.

I don't want to compile HDF5DotNet, because I doubt it's a straight forward process without problems. I found out that the program which produces the HDF5 files can also write *.csv files. Although the files are bigger, they are much easier to read.
