I have not personally tried, but I am pretty sure that you can install the autotools under VxWorks - have you tried to download the latest autotool tarballs and build them? On Apr 15, 2010, at 9:30 PM, 张晶 wrote: > Hello everyone , > > For the purpose to migrate the OpenMPI to VxWorks ,I have

George or Brian: Last week I submitted an RFC for making some changes in the BML layer. However, with further thought, I am thinking of another way to solve my issue. The main idea is that I want to eliminate the use of the cached pointer to the mca_bml_base_btl_t in the descriptor because in
