Re: [OMPI users] How to run OpenMPI C code under Windows 7
Thank you, Marco and Tim. I needed to install the libopenmpi-devel package.Now I would be pleased to obtain a link to material that explains the OpenMPI system, in general, and the OpenMPI C functions, in particular, so that I can write C programs to use the OpenMPI system.

If you have windows 7 X64, the x86_64 cygwin is probably preferable to 32-bit (can't see which you started with). An alternative, with a build of mingw x86-64, is Walt Brainerd's CAF build. If this wasn't discussed in the OpenMPI archives, but has not been withdrawn, you might ask the author, e.g. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/comp.lang.fortran/coarray$20fortran/comp.lang.fortran/P5si9Fj1yIY/ptjM8DMUUzUJ It's a little difficult to use if you have another MPI installed, as Windows MPI (like the MPI which comes with linux distros) don't observe normal methods for keeping distinct paths. I doubt there is a separate version of OpenMPI docs specific to Windows. -- Tim Prince

[OMPI users] How to run OpenMPI C code under Windows 7
How to run OpenMPI C code under Windows 7I'm trying to get OpenMPI C code to run under Windows 7 any way that I can. Evidently there is no current support for running OpenMPI directly under Windows 7, so I installed Cygwin. Is there a better way to run OpenMPI C code under Windows 7?Under Cygwin, I installed a GCC C compiler, which works.I also installed an OpenMPI package. Here is a link to a list of the files in the Cygwin OpenMPI package:https://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-cat.cgi?file=x86%2Flibopenmpi%2Flibopenmpi-1.8.6-1=openmpiMy PATH variable is as follows:/usr/local/bin:/usr/binmpicc will compile, but it won't link. It can't find the following:-lmpi-lopen-rte-lopen-palThe test program includes stdio.h and is nothing more than printf hello world. I can compile and run it using the GCC C compiler.Presumably I need to update the PATH variable so that the link step will find the missing components. Are those components file names or info contained in some other files? Can I verify that the needed files have been installed?I would also be pleased to obtain a link to material that explains the OpenMPI system, in general, and the OpenMPI C functions, in particular, so that I can write C programs to use the OpenMPI system.I looked for this kind of info on the web, but I haven't found it yet. Maybe it's on the OpenMPI site, and I missed it.Thanks for your help!Philip Bitar
