Hello, you can build your ompi with --with-devel-headers and use the header <ompi/version.h>:
#define OMPI_MAJOR_VERSION 1 #define OMPI_MINOR_VERSION 1 #define OMPI_RELEASE_VERSION 4 #define OMPI_GREEK_VERSION "" Bert Audet, Martin wrote: > Hi, > > I would like to suggest you to add macros indicating the version of the > OpenMPI library in the C/C++ header file mpi.h analogous to the > parameter constants in the Fortran header file: > > parameter (OMPI_MAJOR_VERSION=1) > parameter (OMPI_MINOR_VERSION=1) > parameter (OMPI_RELEASE_VERSION=4) > parameter (OMPI_GREEK_VERSION="") > parameter (OMPI_SVN_VERSION="r13362") > > This would be very handy if someone discover a bug XYZ and a workaround > for it in OpenMPI versions before (and not including) 1.1.4 for example > and wants his code to be portable on many OpenMPI versions and also on > other MPI-2 implementations.
