[mpich-discuss] MPICH2 On Windows 64 bit and Mingw-w64 compilers

Tue Feb 22 07:05:51 CST 2011

Hi

I downloaded the MPICH2-1.3.2p1 Windows EM64T/AMD64 (binary) onto my 
Windows-XP 64bit machine. I tried to use it with two GNU compilers: 
V4.4.3 and V.4.5.3. Basically, I tried to link the icpi.c example into 
an executable. With GCC V4.4.3, I get undefined symbols, while with 
V4.5.3, it works well. Does it mean that, if I want to use GCC V4.4.3, I 
need to rebuild MPICH2 from the source using the V4.4.3 compiler?

The output details of my trials are below.

Thanks for your help.

With Best Regards
Arun
