Charm++ parallel programming system

[Phil Miller <mille121 AT illinois.edu>]

Hi Sabrina,

We're actually in the process of changing our documentation to suggest that users simply compile their new load balancing strategies independently of the core system. This doesn't change anything about their performance or how to link them in - solely when and where they get built. If you subsequently want to suggest that we include the LB strategy you've written in our distribution, we'll take care of the various script updates and build system incorporation.

Here's the summary version of the way this would go:

1. charmc NameLB.ci

2. charmc -o libmoduleNameLB.a NameLB.C

2. charmc -o application_name foo.o bar.o baz.o -module NameLB

Hope this helps.

Phil

Hi,

I'm trying do include a new load balancer on Charm++. 

What I did:

• Put the file in the directory: ./charm-20141124/tmp
• Run: Makefile_lb.sh (for creating Make.lb)
• Generate the balancer interface using "charmc NameLB.ci"
• Run: make depends (*)

(*) In this step, I dropped in the trouble. The system informes to me: 

(after several checking dependencies, appears)

   "checking dependencies for ScotchLB.C

    checking dependencies for TeamLB.C

    TeamLB.C:13:19: fatal error: metis.h: No such file or directory

    compilation terminated.

    Compilation of 'TeamLB.C' failed, please fix it first!!!!"

The compilation fail because the system could not find the file "metis.h".

Actually, when I did a comment on this checking point the trouble repeats in other checking.

Does someone have one idea how can I solve this problem?

I'd appreciate any help.

Sabrina.
