Actually, hwloc *does* build and work on windows - they even have a windows version in downloads (built with mingw). Autotools works (sortof) in mingw, on windows. The main problem with mingw toolchain is, you need *everything* built with the same version, or stuff will break. Visual Studio + hwloc ... now thats a challenge. > Here's how to load dynamic libraries in Windows: > http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_loading#Windows Huh, so simple... /me suspicious :) > OK mingw/cygwin is a good start, but of course a "native" Visual Studio > build is the ultimate target.

Actually no, its very easy to build. The problem (for me) was hwloc+VisualStudio (i didn't know hwloc is optional), and some windows equivalent of dlopen. > Mikael mentioned he is interested in cmake for Mac build, I think he even > started to work on it. He mentioned this to me a month ago in IWOCL. Great!
