[mpich-discuss] Fwd: ask for help on MPICH2

[Michael Colonno]

	Hi Jayesh ~

	Firstly, thanks for the response to my question. After some hours of
debugging over the weekend I managed to get the application to build
(Windows example environments you mention below were very helpful). The key
seemed to be judicious choices of which libraries to link and ignore via the
/NODEFAULTLIB: flag. I'm linking a total of three external libraries (MPICH2
is one of them) and had to build various libraries and pieces of my own code
ignoring "LIBCMT" and "MSVCRT" in various places. In building other two
libraries from source I have tried to be strictly consistent with my
application in terms of compiler flags & settings (everything is "Release",
x64, /MT, etc.) but I still needed to ignore various default libs in some
and not in others. I wish there were a more systematic way to go about this
on the Windows platform (and maybe there is and I simply don't know it). 
	I'll be doing some test runs later today with MPICH2 on the Windows
side; hopefully there won't be any run-time issues but I will let you know
if I run into anything. 

	Thanks,
	~Mike C.

Hi,
 What are the dependency libraries that you have specified in Visual Studio
(The error messages seem to suggest that you did not specify the MPICH2
dependency library, fmpich2.lib, when you compiled your code)?
 You can use "C:\Program Files\MPICH2\examples\examples.sln" as a template
for your building your code.

Regards,
Jayesh

Dear Dr. Ewing Lusk, 

This is Tianle Cheng from National Energy Technology Laboratory. I'm writing
to seek for help on using MPICH2, knowing that you are developer of it. My
computer system is Dell T7500 workstation, with Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. I
have installed Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 and Intel Visual Fortran
compiler v11.1, and I would like to use MPICH2 to run some small parallel
jobs on my computer. While I have followed the manual of "MPICH2 Windows
Development Guide Version 1.4.1" (see the attached "Configuration steps
following manual"), there are always linking errors as listed in the
attached "error messages". 
I'll appreciate it very much if you could help me to figure out the problem
or forward my email to some responsible support team. 

Thank you very much! 
(I have sent this email to Dr. Pavan Balaji, getting an automatic response
that he's on travel).
