Charm++ parallel programming system

Hi Casey,

Are you trying to install Charm++ on your Macbook? If so, you don't really need an MPI build. You could just use the multicore build of Charm++:

./build charm++ multicore-darwin-x86  OR  ./build charm++ multicore-darwin-x86_64 

depending on your platform. You could also build a version that uses sockets for communication: 

./build charm++ net-darwin-x86 OR ./build charm++ net-darwin-x86_64

I'm trying to build charm 6.2 with Open MPI on an Intel Macbook Pro. I have gcc 4.6.0 and open mpi 1.4.3 and have added those paths to PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH. I'm running OS X 10.6.8.

When I try `./build -help` and set multicore support, it stops with the message: "We could not figure out how to build charm with those options on this platform, please manually build

Try something similar to: ./build charm++ mpi-darwin   mpicxx    -O2". I tried this, but the build script says "Error> build can not find arch: mpi-darwin!"

I also tried mpi-linux and mpi-linux-x86_64 just in case, but those fail during QuickThreads (error code 1).

Am I missing something? I would be happy to try it with another mpi lib if that could fix it.

Best,

Casey
