[MOAB-dev] r5108 - in MOAB/trunk: . src src/io src/moab src/parallel src/parallel/moab test test/parallel tools tools/dagmc tools/mbzoltan tools/refiner

[Tim Tautges]

One other change, ProgOptions.cpp includes moab_mpi.h; you'd probably simply substitute mpi.h for that.

The makefile settings would be the same as for any other set of source files that a program includes.  However, one source change would be necessary: ProgOptions.cpp includes 'moab/ProgOptions.hpp,' and such a non-MOAB program would probably not have an include directory named 'moab.'  So the include path in the .cpp file would need to be tweaked.  Besides that change, the ProgOptions.*pp files should be easy to pull from MOAB and drop into another project.  I already do this with our mcnp2cad tool.
