Hello,
I work for a long time again with C + + and some numerical methods must be implemented with the help of the boost, among other things, with MPI. Does the Booster precompiler flag that I can verify that the boost is compiled with MPI support like:
#if
defined(BOOST_WITH_MPI)
#endif
Thanks for help

I am pretty sure that cannot be achieved without some special support from the build system. What build system are you using to build your application with?
I use scons for building my project, but I can't check for the open-mpi libs, because under MS systems you link the the boost against ms-mpi.
I am not familiar with scons, but the idea I had was to employ an autoconf-like support in the build system to try to build a sample program that uses boost.mpi, and to define a preprocessor symbol named e.g. HAVE_BOOST_WITH_MPI if that sample builds well. Perhaps some scons expert can tell if it is possible to do with scons? FWIW, Boost.Build has just recently got that kind of support IIRC.
My project has some parallel instructions which use the boost mpi components, but they arn't be necessary, so the don't need be compiled if there isn't the mpi support in the boost
Nod.
Thanks
