[petsc-users] Error in configuring PETSc with Cygwin

Hi,


VS2022 really sovled this error and there is no more error with the compiler, this is a good news!


However, a new problem comes with the link option for MS-MPI (since MPICH2 doesn't work):


I've made reference to PETSc website and downloaded MS-MPI in directory D:\MicrosoftMPI and D:\MicrosoftSDKs to avoid space (by the way, method on https://petsc.org/release/install/windows/ which use shortname for a path is not useful anymore for win10 because shortname doesn't exist, see [1]). I have no idea if my tying format is not correct since the PETSc website doesn't show the coding for two include directories. Below is my typing:


./configure --with-cc='win32fe cl' --with-fc=0 --with-cxx='win32fe cl' --with-shared-libraries=0 --with-mpi-include='[/cygdrive/d/MicrosoftSDKs/MPI/Include,/cygdrive/d/MicrosoftSDKs/MPI/Include/x64]' --with-mpi-lib=-L"/cygdrive/d/MicrosoftSDKs/MPI/Lib/x64 msmpifec.lib msmpi.lib" --with-mpiexec="/cygdrive/d/MicrosoftMPI/Bin/mpiexec"


This ends up with the error information:


--with-mpi-lib=['-L/cygdrive/d/MicrosoftSDKs/MPI/Lib/x64', 'msmpifec.lib', 'msmpi.lib'] and
--with-mpi-include=['/cygdrive/d/MicrosoftSDKs/MPI/Include', '/cygdrive/d/MicrosoftSDKs/MPI/Include/x64'] did not work


This may not be a very delicacy problem? And I am voluntary to make a summary about this installation once it succeed.


Sorry for always bother with problem,
FENG

Perhaps the compilers are installed without english - so we can't read the error messages.

We test with:

Microsoft (R) C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 19.32.31329 for x64

I guess that's VS2019 vs VS2022?

You can try using --with-cxx=0 and see if that works.

Something a bit suspectable is that I open Cygwin with dos. (actually the Intel Compiler 19.1 Update 3 Intel 64 Visual Studio 2019, x86 environment for the test of ifort ia-32 ,in particularlly)
