LAM MPI

LAM MPI is an MPI package that can be easily installed. There is not, however, active development taking place, as developers are moving toward OpenMPI.

Installation

Configuration

#!/bin/sh
#
# run configure
# make
# make install

./configure \
 --prefix=$HOME/pkg/lam-7.1.4 \
 --with-fc=/usr/local/bin/gfortran \
 --enable-shared=yes \
 CC="/usr/bin/gcc -g" \
 CXX="/usr/bin/g++ -g" \

Test

You can test your installation of LAM MPI as follows:

$ cd /path/to/lam/src/examples/hello
$ make
$ lamboot
$ ./hello/cxxhello

Before running the lamboot command, the directory /path/to/lamboot/bin must be added to your $PATH variable.
