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

Tue Jan 11 07:23:33 CST 2011

Hi Jayesh

Yes, I linked icpi.o with mpi.lib. Happy to hear that Mingw64 support 
will be available this month. I can wait for a couple of weeks for the 
next release. In the meantime, if you want me to test the pre-release 
version, I would be happy to do that.

Thanks for your help.

Best regards
Arun

AFAICT we added support for mingw 64-bit compilers (*.a libraries compatible with mingw 64-bit compilers) after 1.3.1 was released. It should be available in the next release, 1.3.2, due this month.
