Sorry for the ginormous delay in replying here; I blame SC'10, Thanksgiving, and the MPI Forum meeting last week...

What problems did you have?

Is this what Intel recommends for anything compiled with ifort on OS X, or is this unique to OMPI-compiled MPI applications? > The problem is that adding /opt/intelsoft/openmpi/lib to DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH > broke my Open MPI for gfortran.

I'm not quite clear on your setup, but it *sounds* like you're somehow mixing up 2 different installations of OMPI -- one in /opt/intelsoft and the other in /opt/gfortransoft. Can you verify that you're using the "right" mpif77 (and friends) when you intend to, and so on? -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
