Does anyone on this list have experience using MS Visual Studio for MPI development? I'm supporting a Windows user who has been doing Fortran programming on Windows using an ANCIENT version of Digital Visual Fortran (I know, I know - using "ancient" and "Digital" in the same sentence is redundant.)
Well, we are upgrading his equally ancient laptopa new one with Windows 7, so we installed Intel Visual Fortran (direct descendent of DVF) and Visual Studio 2010, and to be honest, I feel like a fish out of water using VS 2010. It took me a longer than I care to admit to figure out how to specify the include and linker paths. Right now, I'm working with the Intel MPI libraries, but plan on installing OpenMPI, too, once I figure out VS 2010. Can anyone tell me how to configure visual studio so that when you click on the little "play" icon to build/run the code, it will call mpiexec automatically? Right now, it compiles fine, but throws errors when the program executes because it doesn't have the right environment setup because it's not being executed by mpiexec. It runs fine when I execute it with mpiexec or wmpiexec. -- Prentice
