MinGW and TBB installation

[nath02]

Hi everybody !

I really need some help, here's my problem : I have to work on a project in c++ and I have to parallelise it.

I have un computer with 8 CPU's (Windows 7)and I have to work with Eclipse and MinGW.

BUT how can I install TBB with MinGW ? I mean, I read a lot of articles and documentations on Windows installation but, that's usually talking about Visual Studio and I must not use that.

How could I do tobuild TBB? Do you have any solution ? I'm completly lost and quite tired. I have already lost a lot of time on this installation and I'm quite annoyed...

If someone had succeeded in that kind of installation, could you explain to me in details how you did so ?

Really, thanks in advance, I really need your help.

Thanks again.

Here's my compilator configuration :gcc 3.4.5

[Alexey-Kukanov]

I just downloaded tbb22_20090809oss_src.tgz from the site, unpacked it (with WinZip), changed to the directory and run the command that Vladimir suggested (with the most recent 20090914 version of mingw32-make). Everything went fine, the binaries got built in a minute.

Try adding --dry-run option to the make command. It should then print every command it would normally execute. Do you get any output from that, or does it still hang?

[nath02]

I added what you suggested to me, but it's still the same result : nothing happens.

I'm quite nervous about this situation. I have to send a project before the end on the month and I really need this library. Joys of informatics.

[nath02]

So, since it still doesn't work on my 8 cpus computer, I tried to install it on my dualcore computer (Windows XP, mingw32-male 3.81, gcc) and the compilation begins with : mingw32-make compiler=gcc.

Unfortunately, it fails with this error :

C:/Intel/tbb22_20090809oss/build/windows_ia32_gcc_mingw_debug/../../src/tbbmalloc/proxy.cpp:209:reference indefinie vers scalable_msize

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

mingw32-make[1]: *** [tbbmalloc_proxy_debug.dll] Error 1

mingw32-make[1] : Leaving directory 'C:/Intel/tbb22_20090809oss/builf/windows_ia32_gcc_mingw_debug'

mingw32-make: *** [tbbmalloc] Error 2

Even if it works on this computer (dualcore) I really need to install it on my "big" one.

Thank you again for your help and your advices

[Alexey-Kukanov]

Judging by the absense of --dry-run output, I would say something is wrong with the make utility, or maybe makefiles are corrupt. Try another GNU make utility, e.g. the one from GNUWin32 project: http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/make.htm.

The link error seems suprising. I will re-check; but also I would recommend you to switch to the most recent commercial-aligned package of TBB. These packages arestill open-source, just built from the same sources as commercial releases of TBB. See http://www.threadingbuildingblocks.org/download.php -> Commercial Aligned Release.

[nath02]

It still doesn't work, even with the commercial aligned package. It compiles but I have this error:

Please can you help me again ? I need to install it before 4 days, I'm really disappointed :-(

Is it possible that this problem comes from my compiler ?

Thank you....

[edit] : On my 8 cpus computer it doesn't do anything... Do I have to change some environment variables ?

[Alexey-Kukanov]

Well, the TBB itself seems to build successfully. What failed is building an additional library that is useful to substitute "standard" memory allocation routines with the call to TBB memory allocator. It does not prevent you from using TBB.

To avoid the compilation problem, specify explicitly that you just want to build TBB, nothing else. For that, add 'tbb" target to the command line:

mingw32-make compiler=gcc arch=ia32 runtime=mingw tbb

It will create tbb.dll in build\windows_ia32_gcc_mingw_release; for debug version (tbb_debug.dll), look into windows_ia32_gcc_mingw_debug.

[nath02]

Thank you for your answer, really, thanks a lot.Now I have this :

mingw32-make[1]: Leaving directory `C:/Intel/tbb22_013oss/build/windows_ia32_gcc_mingw_release'

Does it mean that the library is compiled ? Because, when I try to run one of the examples given, I have some errors as :

sub_string_finder.cpp:33:30: error: tbb/parallel_for.h: No such file or directory

Furthermore, I tried to compile with that command ligne on my windows 7 computer and it doesn't work. It's quite unsettling isn't it ?

[Alexey-Kukanov]

Yes "nothing to be done" means the library is compiled.

Now you havebuilt the library. To compile an example, you need to set up the environment. As far as I know, for MinGW you need to set up CPATH to contain the directory with TBB headers ([your_TBB_dir]/include), LIBRARY_PATH to contain directories with DLLs (the ones I mentioned before, or some others if you copied DLLs to any place). In order to run the example, system loader should also be able to find DLLs so these directories should also be in PATH (or the DLLs should be copied to a directory that is already in PATH).

To quickly see that examples are running, there is a simpler way: run make again, but this time specify examples as the target.

[nath02]

Oh thank you ! I have these errors of compilation by now, but I guess it comes from my environment variables. Actually, I have to create these variables :CPATH and LIBRARY_PATH ? Because they don't exist on my system.

Thank you, really !

[Alexey-Kukanov]

These errors are because you did not specify compiler=gcc (and also arch and runtime, if automatic detection fails). You should always specify compiler=gcc when building any part of TBB with MinGW (because by default MSVC is expected on Windows).

[nath02]

Oh thank you, it works ! I haven't tried yet on my program but, it should be ok (I hope so !).

Just a last question, why doesn't it work on my windows 7 computer ? I would say that "the configuration" it's the same (I mean, same compiler, MinGW, mingw32-make). As I said in a previous post, when I run the compilation with : mingw32-make compiler=gcc arch=ia64 runtime=mingw it seems to be on "stand-by", nothing happens and I must do a ctrl-C to abort.

Should I install something else, specifically to windows 7 in addition to what I've already installed ?

Thank you

[Alexey-Kukanov]

Well, I don't know what could be wrong with running mingw32-make on Windows 7. I tried it on my workstation, all went just fine. I don't remember if you tried another make utility - if yes, was it any different?

But anyway you should not be blocked by that, as you don't have to recompile TBB on exactly the same machine where you plan to run your app. Just copy the binaries to that machine, set up the environment properly, and you should be fine.

[Vladimir_P_Intel2]

you can try the following command

mingw32-make -d compiler=gcc arch=ia32 runtime=mingw

to see debug output in the place where script hangs.

BTW, we do not support ia64 platform on windows (I see "arch=ia64" in your message).

--Vladimir.

[nath02]

Thank you. Here is the beginning of the execution (lot of text so I won't paste everything) :

Thank you again for your help.

Hi,

it looks something is wrong with msys environment on the machine you can try to run following command to check

C:/msys/1.0/bin/sh.exe -c "cmd /c mkdir "windows_ia32_gcc_mingw_release""

and see the output. I think the shell wants to ask you about something but since output is redirected to null device you can't see the question.

Or rename sh.exe for the check -then make should pick up the cmd.exe shell as default.

Hello !

I did what you said : C:/msys/1.0/bin/sh.exe -c "cmd /c mkdir "windows_ia32_gcc_mingw_release"" and I wanted to give you what was said but, my computer felt down... I'm not very lucky with the computers, I think they don't like me (lol).

I'll ckeck this out, and I'll tell you.

I'd have another question anyway, about the code itself. Here's my loop for, which must be parallelised :

ClassFunct::ClassFunct() {

readFile();

// fill the matrix

int int_amount = int_vect.size();

for (int i=0; i

for (int j=i+1; j

//my code

}

}

}

I have to say that, when I read the examples about the transformation of a simple loop for into a parallel_for, I don't clearly understand what you do exactly. I would like to do it with this code but, as I said I don't understand what I do.

Can you explain to me in few words ?

Thank you again

[EDIT] : When I do C:/msys/1.0/bin/sh.exe -c "cmd /c mkdir "windows_ia32_gcc_mingw_release"" I just have :

"Can you explain to me in few words ?"
Probably not in a few words, because your iterations are not independent. At best, they access every pair of elements, at worst they also change the elements. Which is it, and how big is the vector?

[nath02]

It's a matrix 1000x1000. It's true, loops are not independant. It might cause some errors in the results I guess.

Anyway, I can't find the problem on my Win 7 computer and I'm not sure about the implementation of the parallel_for. I don't have time anymore, I shoudfind another solution I think.

[RafSchietekat]

If this is also a gaussian elimination or something like it, a parallel loop inside a serial loop should already get you somewhere.

[nath02]

Actually, yes the executions inside my loops are independant, completly. So, I can use the parallel_for, no ?

Nevermind, I don't really understand how to do even if I read the examples, and the doc about that.

[Alexey-Kukanov]

This is not that hard actually. Consider you have a loop:

int A;
for(int i=0; i do something with A;
}

Then you write a class to use with TBB:

struct MyLoopBody {
int*my_A;

MyLoopBody( int*A ){
my_A = A;
} // body constructor

operator() ( int i ) {
do the samewith my_A as in serial loop;
} // loop iteration
};

and then in the place where you serial loop was, you write

int A;
tbb::parallel_for( 0, N, MyLoopBody( A ) );

Of course in practice it could be more complex than that, but you get the idea. Feel free to ask more specific questions.
