The following common shared libraries did not have versioning:
* ompi/common/ofacm
* ompi/common/verbs
* ompi/common/ugni
Additionally, we still had shared library versions in VERSION for the
following libraries, which no longer exist:
* ompi/common/portals
* opal/common/hwloc
This commit was SVN r29421.
1. New mpifort wrapper compiler: you can utilize mpif.h, use mpi, and use mpi_f08 through this one wrapper compiler
1. mpif77 and mpif90 still exist, but are sym links to mpifort and may be removed in a future release
1. The mpi module has been re-implemented and is significantly "mo' bettah"
1. The mpi_f08 module offers many, many improvements over mpif.h and the mpi module
This stuff is coming from a VERY long-lived mercurial branch (3 years!); it'll almost certainly take a few SVN commits and a bunch of testing before I get it correctly committed to the SVN trunk.
== More details ==
Craig Rasmussen and I have been working with the MPI-3 Fortran WG and Fortran J3 committees for a long, long time to make a prototype MPI-3 Fortran bindings implementation. We think we're at a stable enough state to bring this stuff back to the trunk, with the goal of including it in OMPI v1.7.
Special thanks go out to everyone who has been incredibly patient and helpful to us in this journey:
* Rolf Rabenseifner/HLRS (mastermind/genius behind the entire MPI-3 Fortran effort)
* The Fortran J3 committee
* Tobias Burnus/gfortran
* Tony !Goetz/Absoft
* Terry !Donte/Oracle
* ...and probably others whom I'm forgetting :-(
There's still opportunities for optimization in the mpi_f08 implementation, but by and large, it is as far along as it can be until Fortran compilers start implementing the new F08 dimension(..) syntax.
Note that gfortran is currently unsupported for the mpi_f08 module and the new mpi module. gfortran users will a) fall back to the same mpi module implementation that is in OMPI v1.5.x, and b) not get the new mpi_f08 module. The gfortran maintainers are actively working hard to add the necessary features to support both the new mpi_f08 module and the new mpi module implementations. This will take some time.
As mentioned above, ompi/mpi/f77 and ompi/mpi/f90 no longer exist. All the fortran bindings implementations have been collated under ompi/mpi/fortran; each implementation has its own subdirectory:
{{{
ompi/mpi/fortran/
base/ - glue code
mpif-h/ - what used to be ompi/mpi/f77
use-mpi-tkr/ - what used to be ompi/mpi/f90
use-mpi-ignore-tkr/ - new mpi module implementation
use-mpi-f08/ - new mpi_f08 module implementation
}}}
There's also a prototype 6-function-MPI implementation under use-mpi-f08-desc that emulates the new F08 dimension(..) syntax that isn't fully available in Fortran compilers yet. We did that to prove it to ourselves that it could be done once the compilers fully support it. This directory/implementation will likely eventually replace the use-mpi-f08 version.
Other things that were done:
* ompi_info grew a few new output fields to describe what level of Fortran support is included
* Existing Fortran examples in examples/ were renamed; new mpi_f08 examples were added
* The old Fortran MPI libraries were renamed:
* libmpi_f77 -> libmpi_mpifh
* libmpi_f90 -> libmpi_usempi
* The configury for Fortran was consolidated and significantly slimmed down. Note that the F77 env variable is now IGNORED for configure; you should only use FC. Example:
{{{
shell$ ./configure CC=icc CXX=icpc FC=ifort ...
}}}
All of this work was done in a Mercurial branch off the SVN trunk, and hosted at Bitbucket. This branch has got to be one of OMPI's longest-running branches. Its first commit was Tue Apr 07 23:01:46 2009 -0400 -- it's over 3 years old! :-) We think we've pulled in all relevant changes from the OMPI trunk (e.g., Fortran implementations of the new MPI-3 MPROBE stuff for mpif.h, use mpi, and use mpi_f08, and the recent Fujitsu Fortran patches).
I anticipate some instability when we bring this stuff into the trunk, simply because it touches a LOT of code in the MPI layer in the OMPI code base. We'll try our best to make it as pain-free as possible, but please bear with us when it is committed.

OMPI supports multiple different repository systems (SVN, hg, git).
But the VERSION file has listed "want_svn" and "svn_r" as fields, even
though the actual repo system and version may not be SVN.
So search/replace those fields (and derrivative values that come from
those fields) with "want_repo_rev" and "repo_rev", respectively.

versioning by assuming that 1.3.3 was released as 0:0:0. The next
release (1.3.4 or 1.4 or whatever it is) will be the first to
programatically set these valuess (and it'll likely be something
beyond 0:0:0 for at least some of the libraries).
This commit was SVN r21732.
note in VERSION file.
NOTE: the versions will ''always'' be 0:0:0 on the SVN trunk and
developer branches. They will only have meaningful values (starting
with 0:0:0 in 1.3.4) on release branches. Only RM's will modify these
values immediately preceeding a release.

Fixes trac:1387
Big thanks to Jeff and Brian for help and oversight.
This commit was SVN r19120.
The following Trac tickets were found above:
Ticket 1387 --> https://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/ompi/ticket/1387
a random string of characters as part of the version number (the really
soon to happen 1.0lanl release and the 1.1sc2005 release that we've
talked about). So rather than having alpha and beta fields that must
be numeric values, have a general field that can be any alphanumeric
value.
This commit was SVN r7511.
more obvious (and documented)
- VERSION now has lots of comments in it
- separate out whether we want the SVN r number in the version and
what the SVN r number is
- clearly describe the process for building the full version number
string
- make ompi info have a separate line item specifically for the SVN r
number, regardless of what the version number is
- update "make dist" process to substitute in the SVN r version
