[mpich-discuss] client server application on windows7

Hi,
 The process manager with MPICH2 on Windows (SMPD) does not support publish/lookup across different jobs. You will have to publish/lookup the port name yourself (Write port string from MPI_Open_port() to a text file and read it etc.).

Regards,
Jayesh

Subject: [mpich-discuss] client server application on windows7



Hi guys, 

I am trying to build a simple client/server application on windows 7 using Visual Studio where the server and the client are run by two different mpiexec and it worked well, but when i introduced mpi_publish_name and mpi_lookup_name the client couldn't find the port associated with the name service, knowing that these tow functions work well when they are in the same programme, i thought that maybe there is a kind of scope for those functions. 
so, could any body help me with it. 

and thanks.
