[mpich-discuss] mpic++/mpicxx?

[Jayesh Krishna]

Hi,
 The MPI compiler wrapper scripts (mpicc, mpicxx etc) are currently not provided with MPICH2 on Windows. Try creating a batch script with Visual studio compiler so that you can use the batch script in place of the VS compiler. You should be able to use this script with Boost.

(PS: The last time I tested Boost with MPICH2 on Windows I manually modified their installer/jam scripts)
Regards,
Jayesh

Subject: [mpich-discuss] mpic++/mpicxx?

Hello,

I'm new to distributed development and was thinking of using your 
implementation of the MPI standard in combination with the Boost C++ 
Library. However after some reading I've come to understand that a 
compiler wrapper called mpic++ (mpicxx or otherwise) is required as well 
but I see no mention of it anywhere on the MPICH2 site ( 
http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2 ), nor does it seem to 
have come prepackaged with the installer (mpich2-1.4-win-ia32.msi) I 
downloaded. Where might I find it exactly, and as a compiler wrapper, 
can I safely assume I'm meant to use it wherever I would ordinarily use 
my regular compiler (MSVC9 on Windows, GCC on Linux) when MPICH2 is 
involved? Is there anything in particular I should know or take note of 
with mpic++/mpicxx or MPICH2 in general?

Thank you!
