find TPL hdf5 list of libs
@nschloe @bartlettroscoe should hdf5 automatically include -lhdf5_hl -lhdf5
and often hdf5 requires a -ldl. Should that be there as well? dir-bin (gcc) 5 $ nm $HDF_BASE_DIR/lib/libhdf5.a | grep dl U dlclose U dlerror U dlopen U dlsym
@bathmatt, thanks for creating this.
@nschloe, do you have an opinion on this?
I am fine with changing the default personally. The question is how to update the call to FIND_PACAKGE(HDF5) to comply. For advanced users that know exactly what they want to link against for a particular platform, they just set HDF5_LIBRARY_NAMES="<name0>;<name1>;... and then they get what they want. That is what CASL VERA does for its builds (takes nothing to chance).
often hdf5 requires a -ldl.
The HDF5 config tells you whether or not you need that, and CMake should actually pick it up automatically. That's a key idea of CMake: Only worry about your direct dependencies. Including more than what's necessary has often led to problems in the past.
OK, then it doesn't seem to at least. Ihave to specify it by hand. This is on hansen for instance.
Is there an HDF5Config.cmake file that gets installed with HDF5? That would be great.
