Petsc can also be used from gnu compilers. You need to specify the correct compilers you wish to use to PETSc configure I presume you would like to use PETSc from fortran [using intel fortran] on windows? If so: - install cygwin [for build tools per installation instructons] - install MLK for blas/lapack [if available or use configure option --download-f-blas-lapack=1] - install MPICH for windows [or if you wish to use PETSc sequentially, use --with-mpi=0] Now counfigure PETSc with the required compilers [check config/cygwin-ms.py] ./config/configure.py --with-cc='win32fe cl' --with-fc='win32fe ifort' [autodetect mpich & mlk from default locations] BTW: We test with compaq fortran - and haven't tested with intel fortran on windows for a while. If you encounter problems - let us know.

Hi Satish, Somehow I thought it was the Gnu compilers that were being used for the Windows port done with the help of cygwin. So I think I was wrong in making that assumption. So what I really want is to build it with the MS-VisualC++ compiler and Intel Fortran Compiler. So cygwin is just used for the build purpose and the GNU compilers never get used. Is that correct?

yes - PETSc can be installed with MS-C/Compaq-Fortran [or intel compilers] on windows. However the build system still requires cygwin to build the PETSc libraries. Check the installation instructions for additional info. If you encounter problems - send us the erros with appropriate logfiles to petsc-maint(a)mcs.anl.gov [If configure doesn't work - send us configure.log] Satish On Tue, 28 Mar 2006, Girish Pillai wrote: > Folks, > > Is there a port of PETSc library on Windows platform. > I am looking for native Windows port, not the cygwin > port. > > Can one of you please respond? > > The config script does not work properly for Windows > when I tried to run it. > > Thanks, > Girish > > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Tired of spam?

Native Windows port of PETSc library - not cygwin based.
by Girish Pillai 28 Mar '06

Folks, Is there a port of PETSc library on Windows platform. I am looking for native Windows port, not the cygwin port. Can one of you please respond? The config script does not work properly for Windows when I tried to run it. Thanks, Girish __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Fwd: New Additions

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Matthew Knepley <knepley(a)gmail.com> Date: Mar 17, 2006 10:42 AM Subject: New Additions To: petsc-dev(a)mc.anl.gov Cc: Dmitry Karpeev <karpeev(a)mcs.anl.gov> I just pushed: 1) A new changes file for dev. We can add things we do to this file, and then move them to whatever version we decide to release. That way people can see what is happening in dev realtime. 2) I added a nice Matlab DA viewer to viewers/util that Ethan and Rich wrote. There is a script to use it in bin/matlab. Ethan now believes all this can be converted seamlessly to Matplotlib in Python (which has Matlab syntax). 3) I added the method of charcteristics solver to src/contrib/semiLagrange. Check out the examples. They are really cool. Matt -- "Failure has a thousand explanations. Success doesn't need one" -- Sir Alec Guiness -- "Failure has a thousand explanations.

more updates to VecScatter code
by Barry Smith 10 Mar '06

10 Mar '06

I have pushed another round of improvements to the parallel VecScatter code. There is now a universal parallel VecScatterBegin/End templated over block size. Also further optimizations in generation and use of the scatters. Be on the look out for subtle bugs in scatters. Barry
