Disclaimer:



The functions provided in this package are being provided on an unsupported

basis.  They are not fully tested and therefore should be used with caution.

It is possible that these routines may be included in a shipping release of

MATLAB.  However, be aware that the interface and behavior of these functions

may change and should not be relied upon.  Any problems or suggestions should

be sent to support@mathworks.com.  When writing please refer to solution number

26802.



Instructions:



1.  Create a directory to extract these files.  For example, c:\myfiles\



2.  Create a directory named "private" in this new

    directory. For example,  c:\myfiles\private\



3.  Extract the contents of hdfutils.zip to the new directory, i.e. c:\myfiles\



4.  Add the directory to the MATLAB path.  One of the  many ways to do this is

    to use the MATLAB command ADDPATH. For example,



    addpath c:\myfiles\



    Do NOT add the "private" directory to the path.



5.  There are two top-level functions and many "support" functions.



    The zip file should be extracted and the directory structure preserved.

    The two top level functions are called,



    hdfinfo.m

    hdfread.m



    If the directory structure is preserved, the rest of the files (19 files)

    will be placed in the "private" directory. Use the online help

    (i.e. "helpwin hdfinfo") for instructions on how to use these two

    functions. 



     Any problems or suggestions should be sent to support@mathworks.com.  When
