  • Next message: Paul H. Hargrove: "Re: UPC on Windows"
    Paul,
     
    Thank you very much for such a quick response.
     
    Finally, I am able to finish up to make install.
     
    I have some problem to compile hello.upc.
     
    To compile hello.upc, I have issued the following commands:
     
    1. To access hello.upc 
     
    $ cd /cygdrive/d/upc/berkeley_upc-2.10.0/upc-examples
     
    2. To compile
     
    $ /cygdrive/d/upc/bin/upcc -o hello hello.upc
     
    upcc: Error: Can't connect to
    http://upc-translator.lbl.gov/upcc-2.10.0.cgi: Connection timed out
     
    [Note: I have downloaded only berkeley_upc-2.10.0.tar.gz in the
    directory: D:\S-PLUS7\R\Parallel\Berkeley]
     
    Once again, thank you very much for the time you have given.
     
    Regards,
     
    Deb

    Deb,
    
    A:
    
    berkeley_upc-2.10.0 should be the directory created when you ran the 
    "tar" command to unpack the source archive.
    What do you see if you run
      cd /cygdrive/d/upc
      ls
    
    Unless I made a mistake giving the directions, I expect you should see
    
    "build" and "berkeley_upc-2.10.0".
    If you "cd build" then "../berkeley_upc-2.10.0/configure" should refer
    
    to the file "configure" unpacked from the archive.
    
    
    B:
      MPI_CFLAGS has an upper-case "eye"
      MPI_LIBS has a lowercase "ell"
