[mpich-discuss] Windows and mpicc

Hi,
 There are two ways to install MPICH2 on Windows  - (1) Using the Windows installers (2) Downloading MPICH2 source and compiling it under Cygwin.
 If you install MPICH2 using the Windows msi installers mpicc is not installed (Users typically compile their programs using Visual Studio, Intel Windows compilers etc).
 Since you are working in the Cygwin environment please uninstall MPICH2 and download the MPICH2 source from the link below and install (configure/make/make install - like you would install software on a unix-like/cygwin system) it.

Regards,
Jayesh

Hi Jayesh,

I have already downloaded and installed the Windows version but there is no sign of mpicc (or the Fortran equivalent) in the /bin folder hence my original query.

Regards,

John Mole

Hi,
 mpicc is the compiler wrapper that is installed with MPICH2 (or an MPI library suite). You can download the source and install MPICH2 from the MPICH2 website (http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/downloads/index.php?s=downloads).

Jayesh

I am currently porting a mathematical modelling application from Ubuntu to Windows. I am fairly new to Linux. I am mostly working in Cygwin which emulates the Linux environment in Windows. I have installed MPICH2 on Windows and have set the necessary paths. 



In trying to make Parmetis in Cygwin I get the error ‘mpicc not found’. So I am trying to track down mpicc. I don’t know where it comes from. Is it from GNU or MPICH or where? How do I get hold of it? 



I would be most grateful if someone could provide guidance. 



Thanks, 



John Mole
