Re: [mpich-discuss] I have a question about using MPICH2 1.4.1p1 for Windows
I should back-pedal on some of what I said here as it's not exactly true and wasn't representative of the MPICH project. Microsoft does still have an active MPI team. You can find more information about it from the link on our downloads page. If you want to use Windows and MPI together, you will need to use the MS-MPI version that we have linked from there and contact them for further support. If in the future, you are on a system that we support, you can continue to ask questions here. Thanks, Wesley

Do you mean http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=39961 ?
Yes, that’s what I was referring to.
Additional question, excuse me. I want to create cluster on common PC's local network. May be I should use PVM instead MPI? Thank you for your reply!
I wouldn’t recommend it. PVM is a dead project that is very rarely used anymore. If you want support for that there is *nobody* left to ask. MPI is still the most popular way to do internode communication. The biggest recommendation would be to not use Windows. While there is certainly a community of people who do use Windows for scientific computing, it’s shrinking all of the time. Even Microsoft is de-prioritizing this kind of work. You’d be far better served using Linux as that’s where all of the packages you need are available. There are many websites out there that can give you information about how to build a cluster out of common computers. Your favorite search engine is your friend here.

Sorry. There is no version that we support for Windows anymore. 1.4.1p “should” work for Windows, but none of us are Windows developers and therefore can’t provide any solutions if a problem arises. There are alternate solutions available on the MPICH downloads website including an MPI implementation written by Microsoft that might be able to do what you’re looking for if the version we provided isn’t working.

So. Can I use http://www.mpich.org/static/downloads/3.0.4/hydra-3.0.4.tar.gz for Windows? I read in ReadMe, that it possible to install "hydra" on Windows (some solution exist in instruction). Do Hydra works on Windows correct? Thank you for your reply, Pavan!

You are welcome to download and use the windows binaries, of course.
What I meant is that if it doesn’t work for you, you’ll need to figure it out on your own. We can’t help you with it.

Hello, Pavan. But I use MPICH2 1.4.1p1 for Windows - http://www.mpich.org/static/tarballs/1.4.1p1/mpich2-1.4.1p1-win-ia32.msi
I think, this version is for me (if I use Windows). Or http://www.mpich.org/static/tarballs/1.4.1p1/mpich2-1.4.1p1-win-ia32.msi don't support Windows?
2013/12/5 Pavan Balaji <[email protected]> Hello,

I recompilated examples (Visual Studio 2010) about calculating pi. So. If I exec program on pure C - it works fine on network of 2 machines. But, If I exec program on C++ - it don't work on 2 machines (but work on 1 machine).
