Perhaps msmpi libs are using some internal notation that mingw-gfortran is unable to interpret? The unresolved symbols are coming from /winsame/contrib-mingw/microsoft-hpc-mingw/lib/i386/msmpifec.lib and I think should be resolved by either /winsame/contrib-mingw/microsoft-hpc-mingw/lib/i386/msmpifec.lib or /winsame/contrib-mingw/microsoft-hpc-mingw/lib/i386/msmpi.lib
I would check with:
nm -Ao /winsame/contrib-mingw/microsoft-hpc-mingw/lib/i386/msmpifec.lib /winsame/contrib-mingw/microsoft-hpc-mingw/lib/i386/msmpi.lib |grep _imp__MPI_F_STATUS_IGNORE Should also try to compile that simple mpi fortran code snippet directly with mingw32-gfortran - and see if that works.
mingw32-gfortran conftest.f -o conftest.exe -I/winsame/contrib-mingw/microsoft-hpc-mingw/Include /winsame/contrib-mingw/microsoft-hpc-mingw/lib/i386/msmpifec.lib /winsame/contrib-mingw/microsoft-hpc-mingw/lib/i386/msmpi.lib So I confirm what you found. I also found
http://social.microsoft.com/Forums/is/windowshpcmpi/thread/fa213e91-5b83-419...
which indicates this is a known problem. The basic symbol is in msmpi.lib:
xena.cary$ link /dump /exports msmpi.lib | grep -i mpi_f_st _MPI_F_STATUSES_IGNORE _MPI_F_STATUS_IGNORE
But not the symbol desired by msmpifec.lib:
xena.cary$ nm msmpifec.lib | grep -i mpi_f_st U __imp__MPI_F_STATUSES_IGNORE U __imp__MPI_F_STATUS_IGNORE
So seems not to be mingw but just a fact of the msmpi package. Hm - but I guess this error doesn't show up with ifort.
So my initial guess about 'extra notation/metadata' in the lib file that nm/gnu-ld sounds more feasible. [and gnu tools nm, gnu-ld are unable to parse this stuff. However MS's linker might be resolving this stuff correctly]
Perhaps 'dumpbin /symbols foo.lib' shows what MS linker is looking at.
xena.cary$ dumpbin.exe /symbols C:"\winsame\contrib-mingw\microsoft-hpc-mingw\Lib\i386\msmpifec.lib" | grep F_STATUS_IGNORE 01B 00000000 UNDEF notype External | __imp__MPI_F_STATUS_IGNORE
Either way - looks like msmpi is unuseable from mingw-gfortran.
Agreed. Seems that ifort and MS-Link can resolve what gfortran cannot. I have a summary on these issues that I will send to the list. John
