I personally use emacs+terminal. I know others who use vim+terminal. Many of us use ctags and the like, but it's not quite as helpful as usual because of OMPI's heavy use of pointers. I don't think many developers use a full-blown IDE. For compiler, I'm guessing most of us develop with gcc most of the time, although a few may have non-gcc as the default. We test across a wide variety of compilers, so portability is important. For regression testing, we use the MPI Testing Tool (https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/mtt/ and http://mtt.open-mpi.org/). Many of us have it configured to do builds of the nightly tarballs; some of us push our results to the public database at mtt.open-mpi.org. > Thanks for your help.

It might be a good idea to see our "intro to the OMPI code base" videos: http://www.open-mpi.org/video/?category=internals -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
