Error: HDF5 library configure

[nyckmaia]

Following the H5Cpp INSTALL file documentation, I'm trying to configure and install the HDF5 library in my Ubuntu machine.

I downloaded the lasted HDF5 source code from here: official website
Here is my output:

vm@vm:~/Desktop/hdf5-1.10.6$ sudo ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-build-mode=production --enable-shared --enable-static --enable-optimization=high --with-default-api-version=v110

How can I fix it?

My setup is:
OS: Ubuntu 18 x64
HDF5 Library: 1.10.6
gcc version: 7.4.0
CMake version: 3.10.2

UPDATE 1: HDF5 source-code (CMake version)

Alternatively, I saw in the HDF5 official web site that is possible to download a Cmake version of the HDF5 source-code (For Unix and Windows).

I tried it too.
The CMake process works perfect. No errors.
After that I type: make and sudo make install. It works with no errors.

So, at this point, I was thinking that I have installed the lasted HDF5 library (1.10.6) in my Ubuntu machine, but when I go to the H5cpp folder and type:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-build-mode=production --enable-shared --enable-static --enable-optimization=high --with-default-api-version=v110

I got a CMake error message saying:
-- !!! H5CPP examples require of HDF5 v1.10.4 or greater!!!
Here below is a full terminal error:

This just means that the cmake picks up an older version of libhdf5.so -- probably installed with the system.
When you don't use the provided binary package, then just use the plain unix make -- which will install H5CPP into /usr/loca/ The examples have both unix make files, and cmake.

NOTE: you can control withing CMakeList.txt the root of libhdf5, then just check it the correct one is picked up. As an alternative use the binary package from http://h5cpp.org.
