If you configure ompi with -fdefault-integer-8, then OMPI will assume that Fortran integers are always 8 bytes, so be sure to also compile all of your MPI applications the same way. Indeed, you may want to configure OMPI with something like: ./configure FCFLAGS=-fdefault-integer-8 FFLAGS=-fdefault-integer-8 \ --with-wrapper-fflags=-fdefault-integer-8 \ --with-wrapper-fcflags=-fdefault-integer-8 This will add -fdefault-integer-8 to the mpif77 and mpif90 command lines automatically so that you *can't* compile without that flag. Be aware that 8-byte Fortran integers *should work* in Open MPI, but it is probably not well tested. You may well run into some issues; be sure to let us know if you run into bugs. Sending small test programs that show the problem are usually the best way to help us identify/fix the precise problem. > in gfortran use > integer i > if(sizeof(i) .eq. 8) then > mpi_int_type=MPI_INTEGER8 > else > mpi_int_type=MPI_INTEGER4 > endif I don't think that this should be necessary -- as long as you configured OMPI with the 8-byte-integer setting, then MPI_INTEGER should represent an 8 byte integer. -- Jeff Squyres jsquy...@cisco.com For corporate legal information go to: http://www.cisco.com/web/about/doing_business/legal/cri/
