[petsc-users] petsc with hypre on Windows

[Farshid Mossaiby]

I would check the format of the library with 'dumpbin' tool, available from Visual Studio command propmpt.
 
Hope this helps to identify the problem.

I just reinstalled MPICH to C: (and not the default location Program FIles). I also followed Barry and added --with-cxx="win32fe cl"

Now I am getting errors when linking to hypre. BOTH hypre and petsc are compiled with MSVC 2008 64bit (configured with cygwin). The library is called libHYPRE.a, and as I watched it compile 'cl' was used for compilation. It failed to link (*.lib not found) as *.a so I renamed it to libHYPRE.lib. Now the error is:

Executing: /cygdrive/c/Users/Dominik/Programs/petsc-3.1-p3/bin/win32fe/win32fe cl  -o conftest.exe    -MT -wd4996  conftest.o  -L/cygdrive/c/Users/Dominik/Programs/hypre-2.6.0b/src/hypre/lib -L/cygdri

I configured with:
--with-mpi-dir=/cygdrive/c/MPICH2/ --with-hypre-dir=/cygdrive/c/Users/Dominik/Programs/hypre-2.6.0b/src/hypre/

but:

$ ls -la /cygdrive/c/Users/Dominik/Programs/hypre-2.6.0b/src/hypre/lib
total 8624
drwxr-xr-x+ 1 Dominik None       0 2010-07-26 10:17 .

-rw-r--r--+ 1 Dominik None 8830476 2010-07-23 23:13 libHYPRE.lib

How can I go on from here?

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:

-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.

Dominik
