Compatibility Information

Compiling and Linking

This section outlines compiling and linking information for MLIB libraries.

HP MLIB 9.6 can be used as archive or shared libraries.

•Use the -Bstatic flag on your compiler command line to link with archive libraries.

•Use the -Bdynamic flag to link with shared libraries.

The following command line examples demonstrate how to compile and link your programs

for use with MLIB libraries:

NOTE Unlike other MLIB libraries, executable files using the ScaLAPACK library

and the SuperLU_DIST library must be linked using mpif90, mpicc or mpiCC,

instead of the Intel Fortran or C compilers.

On the Intel V8.1 or V9.1 compiler

• You can use the following compile line commands to link VECLIB on the Intel V8.1 or

V9.1 compiler for Fortran.

% ifort [options] file ... -L/opt/mlib/[intel_8.1|intel_9.1]/hpmpi_2.2/

lib/64 -lveclib -openmp

For the Intel V8.1 or V9.1 compiler for C/C++:

% icc [options] file ... -L/opt/mlib/[intel_8.1|intel_9.1]/hpmpi_2.2/

lib/64 -lveclib -openmp

If you want to link LAPACK, replace -lveclib with -llapack.

If you want to link SOLVERS, replace -lveclib with -lsolvers.

NOTE When you use the Intel C compiler to link the SOLVERS library, you may

require one or more of -lifcore, -lifport, or -ldl.

If you want to link VMATH, replace -lveclib with -lvmath.
