[petsc-users] --with-hypre-dir did not work for petsc configure in Win-7

[Qin Lu]

I managed to build hypre-2.8.0b with cygwin (instead of cmake) and it worked, but have no idea why it created libhypre.a rather than libhypre.lib. From hypre build's screen output, it did use icl. Please let me know if there is a way to force to create .lib file.

Anyway, PETSc's configure should not care how hypre was built, right? I tried to rename libhypre.a to libhypre.lib (for testing purpose) but got the same error. 

Thank,
Qin

For cl/icl the library should be libhypre.lib or hypre.lib [not libhypre.a]

If you follow the instructions I copy/pasted in my previous e-mail regarding 'windows' installation
- there is no mention of using configure - but of using cmake. [I think you have to install/use native
windows cmake - not the one from cygwin]
