Greg Koenig 60485ff95f This is a very large change to rename several #define values from
OMPI_* to OPAL_*.  This allows opal layer to be used more independent
from the whole of ompi.

---------------
This version of Open MPI compiles and runs under Microsoft Windows.
It has received limited testing compared to other POSIX-like
environments, but it does seem to work.
You can download an Open MPI tarball from the main web site
(http://www.open-mpi.org) or check out a developer copy via Subversion
(more information about SVN checkout available on the Open MPI web
site).
The rest of the document is divided on 3 sections. The first and
second sections are for "easy" setup, based on some files that are
distributed in Open MPI (32 and 64 bits versions). The third section
is only for advanced users or developers who want to deeply dig into
the software.
============================================================================
First approach: Using CMake
NOTE: CMake support will be available in on the Open MPI development
trunk and at some point in the Open MPI 1.3.x series (it is not
available in Open MPI v1.3.0).
1. Download the latest version of CMake (at least v2.4).
2. In the CMake GUI, add the source path and build path of Open MPI
(out of source build is recommended).
3. Then configure, and after the first time configuration, all
available options will show up in the CMake GUI. Select the
options that you require.
4. Run configure again to generate all Windows solution files; they
will be generated in build path.
5. Go to the build directory, open the generated Windows solution
file, and compile.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Second approach: Simple and straightforward
Step 1: Untar the contrib/platform/win32/ompi-static.tgz tarball in
the root directory of the Open MPI distribution.
Step 2: Go in the ompi/datatype subdirectory in the Open MPI
distribution and copy the following:
datatype_pack.c to datatype_pack_checksum.c
datatype_unpack.c to datatype_unpack_checksum.c
Step 3: Add the following to ompi/tools/ompi_info/ompi_info.h and
change the relevant information inside (i.e., replace
everything between @'s).
#define OMPI_CONFIGURE_USER "@USER_NAME@"
#define OMPI_CONFIGURE_HOST "@HOST_NAME@"
#define OMPI_CONFIGURE_DATE "@TODAY_DATE@"
#define OMPI_BUILD_USER OMPI_CONFIGURE_USER
#define OMPI_BUILD_HOST OMPI_CONFIGURE_HOST
#define OMPI_BUILD_DATE OMPI_CONFIGURE_DATE
#define OMPI_BUILD_CFLAGS "/Od /Gm /EHsc /RTC1 /MDd"
#define OMPI_BUILD_CPPFLAGS "-I${HOME}/ompi-trunk -I${HOME}/opal/include -I${HOME}/ompi-trunk/orte/include -I${HOME}/ompi-trunk/ompi/include"
#define OMPI_BUILD_CXXFLAGS "/Od /Gm /EHsc /RTC1 /MDd"
#define OMPI_BUILD_CXXCPPFLAGS "-I${HOME}/ompi-trunk -I../../.. -I$(HOME}/ompi-trunk/opal/include -I${HOME}/ompi-trunk/orte/include -I${HOME}/ompi-trunk/ompi/include"
#define OMPI_BUILD_FFLAGS ""
#define OMPI_BUILD_FCFLAGS ""
#define OMPI_BUILD_LDFLAGS " "
#define OMPI_BUILD_LIBS " "
#define OPAL_CC_ABSOLUTE "cl"
#define OMPI_CXX_ABSOLUTE "cl"
#define OMPI_F77_ABSOLUTE "none"
#define OMPI_F90_ABSOLUTE "none"
#define OMPI_F90_BUILD_SIZE "small"
Step 4: Open the Open MPI project (.sln file) from the root directory
of the distribution.
Step 5: Choose which version you want to build (from the project
manager).
Step 6: Add the build directory to your PATH.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Third approach: Advanced users
The rest of this document is only for advanced users / developers;
i.e., those who has spare time or an urgent necessity to compile their
own Windows version of Open MPI.
Compiling Open MPI natively on Windows requires several tools. Of
course, one need the Microsoft Visual Studio for their C/C++ compiler
as well as for the ml (assembler compiler) and the link utilities.
But the current version require some GNU tools as well. Here is the
list of such tools:
1. Download any Unix for Windows environment. Tested environments include
- cygwin http://www.cygwin.com/
- minGW http://www.mingw.org/
- Windows Services for Unix (SFU)
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/interopmigration/bb380242.aspx
2. Make the default shell ash.exe (install it if it's not installed by
default) as it will highly decrease the configuration and
compilation time.
3. Download a very recent Gnu Libtool (e.g., Libtool 2.2.6).
Now you should be set. The most difficult part is done. Just use your
favorite shell to get a window, go in the Open MPi directory and do
like in any UNIX environments: configure, make, and make install.
