[MOAB-dev] moab/ParallelComm.hpp include order

this error has nothing to do with moab/ParallelComm.hpp

MPI_COMM_WORLD is just a constant, not a type

this should give compile errors too.

Or I don't get what are you trying to do

#include <mpi.h>

int main() {
  MPI_COMM_WORLD my;
}

Alright. This
```
#include <mpi.h>
#include <moab/ParallelComm.hpp>

int main() {
  MPI_COMM_WORLD my;
}
```
creates the same
```
 error: ‘MPI_COMM_WORLD’ was not declared in this scope
```
Can you reproduce?

Cheers,
Nico

Including <moab/MOABConfig.h> doesn't help. I'll see about creating a minimal example...

Can you try including moab/MOABConfig.h directly in your test before
ParallelComm and see if that resolves issues ?

ParallelComm includes Interface.hpp which in turn includes
MOABConfig.h. If you are including some other MOAB header before
these, MOAB_HAVE_MPI might not be defined.
