Re: [OMPI users] Fortran support on Windows Open-MPI
Compaq Visual Fortan for Windows was out, but HP aquired Compaq. HP, later deciding they did not want it, along with the Alpha processor techonology, sold them to Intel. So now it's Intel Visual Fortran Compiler for Windows. In addition, if you don't want that package, instead they do sell a plug-in for Microsoft Visual Studio. There is also a HPC/Parallel enviroment too for Visual Studio, but none of these are cheap. I don't see why you can't include Open MPI libraries in that enviroment.

Damien ___ I'm not certain whether the top-post is intended as a reply to the original post, but I feel I must protest efforts to add confusion. Looking at the instructions for building on Windows, it appears that several routes have been taken with reported success, not including commercial Fortran. It seems it should not be a major task to include gfortran in the cygwin build. HP never transferred ownership of Compaq Fortran, not that it's relevant to the discussion. The most popular open source MPI for commercial Windows Fortran has been Argonne MPICH2, which offers a pre-built version compatible with Intel Fortran. Intel also offers MPI, derived originally from Argonne MPICH2, for both Windows and linux. I can't imagine OpenMPI libraries being added to the Microsoft HPC environment; maybe that's not exactly what the top poster meant. -- Tim Prince
Re: [OMPI users] Fortran support on Windows Open-MPI
Hi Damien, Currently only Fortran 77 bindings are supported in Open MPI on Windows. You could set the Intel Fortran compiler with CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER variable in CMake (the full path to ifort.exe), and enable OMPI_WANT_F77_BINDINGS option for Open MPI, then everything should be compiled. I recommend to use Open MPI trunk or 1.5 branch version. I have successfully compiled/ran NPB benchmark with f77 bindings on Windows. If you want to compile f90 programs, this should also be possible, but it needs a little modification in the config file. Please let me know if I can help.

Re: [OMPI users] Fortran support on Windows Open-MPI
Thanks Shiqing. I'll try that. I'm not sure which bindings MUMPS uses, I'll post back if I need F90. My apologies for not asking a clearer question, when I said Fortran 90 support on Windows, I meant Open MPI, not compilers.

Re: [OMPI users] Fortran support on Windows Open-MPI
Hi, I tried the 1.5a1r23092 snapshot and I used CMAKE 2.6.4 and 2.8.1. In the CMake GUI, I checked the OMPI_WANT_F77_BINDINGS option, and added a FilePath for CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER of C:/Program Files (x86)/Intel/Compiler/11.1/065/bin/ia32/ifort.exe. When I re-run the Configure, CMake wipes the CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER variable and complains about a missing Fortran compiler. Any suggestions?

Re: [OMPI users] Fortran support on Windows Open-MPI
Interesting. If I add the Fortran compiler as a new entry through the
GUI, CMake wipes it. If I use the option to specify the compiler paths
manually on Configure, I can add the Fortran compiler in that way and it
works.
Then there's a compiler error. In
orte\mca\odls\process\odls_process_module.c, right at the top, there's
static bool odls_process_child_died( pid_t pid, unsigned int timeout,
int* exit_status )
{
int error;
HANDLE handle = OpenProcess( PROCESS_TERMINATE | SYNCHRONIZE, FALSE,
(DWORD)pid );
if( 0 == child->pid || INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE == handle ) {
error = GetLastError();
/* Let's suppose that the process dissapear ... by now */
return true;
}
CloseHandle(handle);
/* The child didn't die, so return false */
return false;
}
This line "0 == child->pid" causes a compiler error that tanks the
build, because child doesn't exist in that scope. Should that just be
"0 == pid", seeing as pid is the argument passed to the function
anyway? The build seems fine with this fix.
Finally, there's an installation error on mpi_portable_platform.h. That
file isn't generated as part of the build, and the installation command
is around line 150 of ompi/CMakeLists.txt. If you comment out the
installation of that file the installation works correctly.
I used the 1.5a1r23092 snapshot for this.
Now to make sure it works...

Re: [OMPI users] Fortran support on Windows Open-MPI
Hi Damien,
That's a known problem. see this ticket
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/2404 . It will be applied into
1.5 branch very soon. But if you apply the patch by yourself, it should
also work.
Thanks,
