I took off the OMPI_IMPORTS actually and it now compiles correctly. Maybe those are to be defined if I had built shared lib version of mpi libs.

Probably you need to add OMPI_IMPORTS as an extra preprocessor.

I've also checked that the /MDd is set and indeed libmpid.lib are built against the DLL version of the C++ runtime when I open the solution in vs2010. I myself link my application against the /MDd as well. I don't know why it's looking for __impl__MPI_Address (__impl__ is a prefix related to DLLs somehow). I gather this MPI_Address() function resides in libmpi.lib and libmpid.lib PS: I didn't have these link errors when I built against the prebuilt win libraries from the website, what are the CMAke flags for those?
