Hi all, I'm not sure whether this bug has already been reported/fixed (maybe in the v1.1.1 pre-release):
I've compiled and installed Open MPI Version 1.1 (stable), which worked well. for configuring OpenMPI I used the commandline ./configure --prefix=/home/ph/local/openmpi --disable-mpi-f77 --disable-mpi-f99 since i don't need fortran support. Compiling and executing a simple MPI test program (in C) with Open MPI also worked well. After that I tried to compile VTK (http://www.vtk.org) with MPI support using OpenMPI. The compilation process issued the following error message: /home/ph/local/openmpi/include/mpi.h:1757:33: ompi/mpi/cxx/mpicxx.h: No such file or directory and indeed the location of the file mpicxx.h is /home/ph/local/openmpi/include/openmpi/ompi/mpi/cxx/mpicxx.h and in mpi.h it is stated #if !defined(OMPI_SKIP_MPICXX) && OMPI_WANT_CXX_BINDINGS && !OMPI_BUILDING #if defined(__cplusplus) || defined(c_plusplus) #include "ompi/mpi/cxx/mpicxx.h" #endif #endif so this would refer to the file /home/ph/local/openmpi/include/ompi/mpi/cxx/mpicxx.h as I see it. so there is one subdirectory missing (openmpi) in the reference within mpi.h.
