.TH @COMMAND@ 1 "@PROJECT@" "@PROJECT_SHORT@" "@PROJECT@"
.
.SH NAME
@COMMAND@ -- @PROJECT@ @LANGUAGE@ wrapper compiler
.
.SH SYNTAX
@COMMAND@ [-showme|-showme:compile|-showme:link] ...
.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
-showme
Do not invoke the underlying compiler. Instead, show the command line
that would be executed to compile the program. \fBNOTE:\fR If a
non-filename argument is passed on the command line, the \fI-showme\fR
option will \fInot\fR display any additional flags. For example, both
"@COMMAND@ --showme" and "@COMMAND@ --showme my_source.c" will show all the
wrapper-supplied flags. But "@COMMAND@ -showme -v" will only show the
underlying compiler name and "-v".
.TP
-showme:compile
Do not invoke the underlying @LANGUAGE@ compiler. Instead, show the
compiler flags that would be supplied to the @LANGUAGE@ compiler.
.TP
-showme:link
Do not invoke the underlying @LANGUAGE@ compiler. Instead, show the linker
flags that would be supplied to the @LANGUAGE@ compiler.
.PP
See the man page for your underlying compiler for other options that
can be passed through @COMMAND@
.

.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
Conceptually, the role of these commands is quite simple:
transparently add relevant compiler and linker flags to the user's
command line that are necessary to compile / link @PROJECT@
programs, and then invoke the underlying compiler to actually perform
the command.
.
.PP
As such, these commands are frequently referred to as "wrapper"
compilers because they do not actually compile or link applications
themselves; they only add in command line flags and invoke the
back-end compiler.
.
.
.SS Background
Open MPI is comprised of three software layers: OPAL (Open Portable
Access Layer), ORTE (Open Run-Time Environment), and OMPI (Open MPI).
There are wrapper compilers for each layer; each layer's wrapper only
links in the libraries relevant for that layer. Specifically, each
layer provides the following wrapper compilers:
.

OPAL
\fIopalcc\fR and \fIopalc++\fR
.
.TP
ORTE
\fIortecc\fR and \fIortec++\fR
.
.TP
OMPI
\fImpicc\fR, \fImpic++\fR, \fImpicxx\fR, \fImpiCC\fR (only on systems with
case-senstive file systems), \fImpif77\fR, and \fImpif90\fR. Note
that \fImpic++\fR, \fImpicxx\fR, and \fImpiCC\fR all invoke the same
underlying C++ compiler with the same options. All are provided as
compatibility with other MPI implementations.
.
.PP
The Fortran wrapper compilers for MPI (\fImpif77\fR and \fImpif90\fR)
will be inoperative and will return an error on use if Fortran 77 /
Fortran 90 support was not built into the MPI layer.
.
.
.SS Overview
\fI@COMMAND@\fR is a convenience wrappers for the underlying
@LANGUAGE@ compiler. Translation of an @PROJECT@ program requires the
linkage of the @PROJECT@-specific libraries which may not reside in
one of the standard search directories of ld(1). It also often
requires the inclusion of header files what may also not be found in a
standard location.
.
.PP
\fI@COMMAND@\fR passes its arguments to the underlying @LANGUAGE@
compiler along with the -I, -L and -l options required by @PROJECT@
programs.
.
.PP
The @PROJECT@ Team \fIstrongly\fR encourages using the wrapper
compilers instead of attempting to link to the @PROJECT@ libraries
manually. This allows the specific implementation of @PROJECT@ to
change without forcing changes to linker directives in users'
Makefiles. Indeed, the specific set of flags and libraries used by
the wrapper compilers depends on how @PROJECT@ was configured and
built; the values can change between different installations of the
same version of @PROJECT@.
.
.PP
Indeed, since the wrappers are simply thin shells on top of an
underlying compiler, there are very, very few compelling reasons
\fInot\fR to use \fI@COMMAND@\fR. When it is not possible to use the
wrappers directly, the \fI-showme:compile\fR and \fI-showme:link\fR
options should be used to determine what flags the wrappers would have
used. For example:
.
.PP
shell$ cc -c file1.c `mpicc -showme:compile`
.
.PP
shell$ cc -c file2.c `mpicc -showme:compile`
.
.PP
shell$ cc file1.o file2.o `mpicc -showme:link` -o my_mpi_program
.
.
.SH NOTES
.PP
It is possible to make the wrapper compilers multi-lib aware. That
is, the libraries and includes specified may differ based on the
compiler flags specified (for example, with the GNU compilers on
Linux, a different library path may be used if -m32 is seen versus
-m64 being seen). This is not the default behavior in a standard
build, but can be activated (for example, in a binary package
providing both 32 and 64 bit support). More information can be found
at:
.PP
https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/wiki/compilerwrapper3264
.
.
.SH FILES
.PP
The string that the wrapper compilers insert into the command line
before invoking the underlying compiler are stored in a text file
created by @PROJECT@ and installed to
\fI$pkgdata/@COMMAND@-wrapper-data.txt\fR, where \fI$pkgdata\fR
is typically \fI$prefix/share/openmpi\fR, and \fI$prefix\fR is the top
installation directory of @PROJECT@.
.
.PP
It is rarely necessary to edit this file, but it can be examined to
gain insight into what flags the wrappers are placing on the command
line.
.
.
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
.PP
By default, the wrappers use the compilers that were selected when
@PROJECT@ was configured. These compilers were either found
automatically by Open MPI's "configure" script, or were selected by
the user in the CC, CXX, F77, and/or FC environment variables
before "configure" was invoked. Additionally, other arguments
specific to the compiler may have been selected by configure.
.
.PP
These values can be selectively overridden by either editing the text
files containing this configuration information (see the \fBFILES\fR
section), or by setting selected environment variables of the
form "@PROJECT_SHORT@_value".
