Re: [Rd] Building R from source with the PGI compiler

2017-12-21 Thread Erin Hodgess
Hello!

I’m working on a supercomputer and will be tying into some FORTRAN
programs.  Those programs use OpenACC, which must be compiled with PGI.

In case you are wondering, Why don’t I use C?  I actually started with C
and FORTRAN is faster.

Thanks for listening,
Erin

Hi, Erin.  Please feel free to ignore this, but I'm curious: what is
the advantage to using the PGI compiler?

Hello

I would like to build R from source and use the PGI compiler, rather than
the GCC compiler.


On what platform?  AFAIK we have only ever had reports on Linux.


I saw the instructions for the Intel compiler in the R Installation Manual,
but I didn't see the PGI.  I tried a few times without instructions, but
without success.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.  Also, I hope this is the right
group for the question.


It is.  Earlier versions of the  manual did contain info on using the 
PG(I) Linux compilers but as we had no reports for a long time, the 
probably-stale info was removed.  It looks like the info was added in 
late 2005, so you could try grabbing R sources from, say, 2007.




Sincerely,
Erin

[Rd] Building R from source with the PGI compiler
