mpi library

[105039204]

Guys,

I am very new to parllel programing in fortran using the IVF 11.1. XE composer on linux.
Currently im trying to understand what exactly is needed to compile a sample MPI interface program.

Things which i know thatshallbe neededto compile a MPI program
i) Intel Visual fortran compiler

But when i compile the program it says "mpfi.h" is not found using -openmp compiler option or -parallel flag during compilation.

Do I need to download/purchase some other libraries to make it work?


Thanks
Aditya

MPI is a separate library, not included with Intel Composer. (If you are using Composer XE 2011, that is version 12.)

You can purchase Intel MPI or use the freeware MPICH2 library.

OpenMPI, and possibly others, have full instructions for building with ifort.
