[petsc-users] petsc with hypre on Windows

[Dominik Szczerba]

Hi,

I am able to build petsc-3.1-p3 on Windows 7 64bit using native compiler
(MSVC 2008) with:

./config/configure.py PETSC_DIR=$PWD PETSC_ARCH=win64-msvc-release
--download-c-blas-lapack=1 --with-parmetis=1 --download-parmetis=1
--with-x=0 --with-debugging=0 --with-cc='win32fe cl' --with-fc=0

I also managed to build hypre-2.6.0b separately myself using the same
compiler. Now the last problem is to build petsc with this external package
(--download-hypre will fail). I add to the above configure line:

--with-hypre-dir=/cygdrive/c/Users/Dominik/Programs/hypre-2.6.0b/src/hypre/

but the configuration fails with:

*******************************************************************************
         UNABLE to CONFIGURE with GIVEN OPTIONS    (see configure.log for
details):
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
C++ error! mpi.h could not be located at: ['/cygdrive/c/Program
Files/MPICH2/include']
*******************************************************************************

This error is clearly wrong as:

$ ls -la '/cygdrive/c/Program Files/MPICH2/include'
total 309

-rwx------+ 1 SYSTEM SYSTEM 16765 2010-02-22 16:22 mpio.h

Inspecting the log file shows:

Executing: g++ -c -o conftest.o  -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wno-strict-aliasing
-O    -I/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/MPICH2/include conftest.cc

I think the error is in the white space in "Program Files". I failed to
convince hypre to use the default system installation of MPICH. I *had* to
make a hardcopy in C: to avoid the white space.

I am sending the log to the maintainters, just in case, because I saw more
errors there too.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Dominik
