Using Windows HPC MPI from c++ in SUA?

  Hello,
  
  I am trying to use the Windows HPC MPI library from c++ using windows SUA.
  So i am pretty new to this
  
  Here is my simple c++ example:
  
  
  

  #include <iostream>

  using namespace std;

  int main(){

  cout << "Hello World!\n";

  return 0

  }

  
  
  Compiled and ran it like this:
  
  
  
  

  bash-3.2$ cc -o main.exe main.cpp

  bash-3.2$./main.exe

  Hello World!

  bash-3.2$

  
  
  All looking good so far.
  
  Now i want to include the mpi.h, here is my simple example:
  
  

  #include <stdlib.h>

  #include <iostream>

  #include <mpi.h>

  using namespace std;

  static int mypid;       // PID of *this* node

  static int nnodes;      // number of nodes

  int main(int argc, char *argv[])

  {

  cout << "Starting..." << endl;

  // fire up MPI

  cout << "call MPI_Init().." << endl;

  MPI_Init(&argc, &argv);

  MPI_Comm_rank(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &mypid);

  MPI_Comm_size(MPI_COMM_WORLD, &nnodes);

  // this test required two nodes

  cout << "Rank " << mypid << " of " << nnodes << endl;

  // clean up and exit

  cout << "Clean up and exit..." << endl;

  MPI_Finalize();

  return(0);

  }

  
  
  
  
  
  Now here is where i get confused, if i try to compile this i get this error:
  
  

  bash-3.2$ cc -o simplempi.exe simplempi.cpp

  C:\Users\Administrator\mpiTest\simplempi.cpp(7) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open

  include file: 'mpi.h': No such file or directory

  bash-3.2$

  
  
  
  Which is ok as there is not an mpi.h for SUA. Now i would like to use the HPC mpi.h.
  I downloaded and installed the HPC SDK pack (now i get the header files i need)
  
  

  bash-3.2$ ls -al  "/dev/fs/C/Program Files/Microsoft HPC Pack 2008 SDK/Include/"

  total 312

  drwxrwx---+ 1 +SYSTEM  +SYSTEM      0 Oct  3 08:33 .

  drwxrwx---+ 1 +SYSTEM  +SYSTEM   4096 Oct  3 08:33 ..

  -rwxrwx---+ 1 +SYSTEM  +SYSTEM  13674 Sep  2 15:12 job-v2.xsd

  -rwxrwx---+ 1 +SYSTEM  +SYSTEM  47551 Sep 11 14:51 mpi.f90

  -rwxrwx---+ 1 +SYSTEM  +SYSTEM  53132 Sep 11 14:51 mpi.h

  -rwxrwx---+ 1 +SYSTEM  +SYSTEM  15750 Sep 11 14:51 mpif.h

  -rwxrwx---+ 1 +SYSTEM  +SYSTEM  18153 Sep 11 14:51 mpio.h

  -rwxrwx---+ 1 +SYSTEM  +SYSTEM   6466 Sep  2 15:12 task-v2.xsd

  bash-3.2$

  
  
  
  I then tried to link these headers to my /usr/include (symbolic)  (Maybe this is where i am going wrong??)
  
  

  bash-3.2$ ln -s "/dev/fs/C/Program Files/Microsoft HPC Pack 2008 SDK/Include/"* /usr/include/

  
  
  
  Then tried to recompile, it attempts to load the mpi.h file but has trouble reading it.???
  I tried mixed mode and g++/cc89/cc but without any luck
  
  

  bash-3.2$ cc -o simplempi.exe simplempi.cpp

  flip: /tmp/cc_tmp3_1117 is a binary file, not converted

  C:\Users\Administrator\mpiTest\simplempi.cpp(29) : error C3861: 'MPI_Finalize':identifier not found

  bash-3.2$

  
  
  
  
  So... I guess my question now is ,  is it possible?
  
  Has anyone out there got an MPI example that works with  the windows mpi.h from SUA?
  Can anyone see something wrong in the way i am approaching this problem?
  
  Any help is very gratefully received!
  
  Regards
  Steven
