LAPACK/ScaLAPACK Development

Hi,

I have real problems about getting some information on scalapack for windows 32 environment. There is win64 setup but no win32.

Can you tell me whether it is possible to use scalapack on windows xp (32 bit) by CBuilder or MS Studio for C++ language?

If not what do u suggest me? However, winxp 32bit is a necessity, i should use it.

Thanks for replies in advance.

semihozmen,

The only MPI implementation on Window is msmpi from Microsoft that is 64 bits.
This is why ScaLAPACK is only implemented in 64 bits.

Thanx Julie for your interest,
I am using MPIexec of MPICH2 on windows xp 32bit without any problem..
Also i think there are alot of mpi implementation for windows right?
Do you hear about cygwin? I think it is my saver. I will try it tonight.

semihozen,
OK, sorry I missed than one.
I will add to my TODO list the 32 build for ScaLAPACK.
If you have some time, look into the set_environment of the ScaLAPACK 64 bits build file and modify the libraries/compilers to use the 32 bits version.

Just by curiosity, on what kind on machine are you?
A cluster of Windows machine or a single Windows machine?

Thanks
Julie

I will be glad,thanx...

I am coding on my pc at home.. then i am running it on a cluster of winxp machines.. which is formed for a practical project.. During this project i am really tired of dealing with compatibility problems of libraries with the windows environments. Your study will be really encouraging to people who wonder these libraries and parallel comp.

semihozen,
ScaLAPACK is now available for Win32 Build with Intel Compilers and MPICH2 for Windows.
See http://icl.cs.utk.edu/lapack-for-window ... stall.html for more info
Have fun
Julie
