(sory for the english btw ) HDF5 is not downwards compatible with HDF5 so you cannot use HDF5 libraries directly. However you can convert HDF4 files to HDF5 files either using a command line tool or by calling a DLL library. For HDF5 there are sever libraries. I've implemented HDF5 1.8.0 alpha for LabVIEW. If you are interested in this package, you can send me a personal message and we can add you to the beta program. The package very strictly follows HDF5 C API and even has a reference manual for LabVIEW. Quote

You can call the HDF4 DLL directly from LabVIEW, I don't kwow if there is any workaround.
