I tried to compile flann but I got some errors when opened hdf5.h file about founding the hdf5.h! when open this file you can found import himself into code! "#include " How this happened?! And how can i fix this?

Here is hdf5.h link:
Answer
This line
#include <hdf5.h>
does not refer to the file ifself but to another file with the same name expected to be located typically under /usr/include or whatever your compiler's default path for include files is.
However you seem to be missing the hdf5 library developer files, which should include /usr/include/hdf5.h
You might either find them here: http://www.hdfgroup.org/downloads/index.html or in the repository of your OS distribution.
