class=885381416-28032008> Hmm... looks to me that you are running your MPI
app as a singleton client (Without using mpiexec to launch the MPI
app).</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=885381416-28032008><FONT face=Arial size=2> There is a lot
more work to be done regarding the singleton client implementation (And I think
you might have found a suble bug :) where the PMI_Init() gets called multiple
times). Let us know if you are running your MPI app as a singleton client and we
can discuss on the fix to your problem.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2><SPAN
class=132031215-28032008> If you are referring to the use of
DuplicateHandle() in sock.c (src/mpid/common/sock/iocp/sock.c : easy_create()),
it is to prevent child processes from inheriting the socket (if you would like
to duplicate the handle to be used by another process as you mentioned one
should use WSADuplicateSocket()).</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The problem is that if an application runs under
the control of Application Verifier, the exception may be reported and it will
require expert skills to trace the cause - use !htrace from WinDbg. Without
AppVer, no exception is raised.</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
