Hello, I am trying to build MPI on WinXP, Visual C++ 2008 Express edition, trying to follow instructions at http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_43_0/doc/html/mpi/getting_started.html#mpi.c..., but the problem is shown below: <snip> ===============MPI Auto-configuration=============== Did not find Microsoft Compute Cluster Pack in C:\Program Files\Microsoft Comput e Cluster Pack. warning: toolset mpi initialization: can not find tool mpic++ warning: initialized from C:/boost_1_43_0/tools/build/v2/build\project.jam:881 The system cannot find the path specified.

(1) I can see that bjam cannot find mpic++ and also, bjam displayed "The system cannot find the path specified.", do you know what paths are bjam referring to? Also, if I have mpic++, where should I put this so that bjam can detect it?
(2) I already got myself a Windows IA32 (binary) of MPICH2 and installed. Because it's binary, there is no need to build. In the bin folder, I can see mpiexec.exe, but no mpic++. I am quite lost. I think I am on the wrong track. Normally, where can we acquire mpic++? Shouldn't it be distributed along with this MPI implementation as well?
MPICH2 doesn't have a wrapper compiler. Try: using mpi : : <find-static-library>mpi <library-path>"C:/Program Files/MPICH2/lib" <include>"C:/Program Files/MPICH2/include" : "\"C:\\Program Files\\MPICH2\\bin\\mpiexec\"" ; In Christ, Steven Watanabe
