Hi Artemij, Please correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think that this is a problem with octave since the latter has no mpi support itself and doesn't therefore include any mpi headers. Octave simply pulls in hdf5 so this is probably something that needs to be fixed in hdf5 instead if anything. cheers, Markus
This error means, that hdf5.h must be included BEFORE iostream. In Cell.cc (and in all other sources in .../src), oct-obj.h (include hdf5) is AFTER idx-vector.h (include iostream) included.
Ahh, thanks for clarifying :) This is probably something that should be fixed upstream rather than by us. Would you mind filing a bug upstream or even better, send them a patch that takes care of this? Thanks, Markus
I have sent bug to bug@octave.org
Thank you very much! Please keep us in the loop about what upstream has to say and if they will fix it. cheers, Markus
Answer from upstream: John W. Eaton ... It seems like a really bad design decision for the MPI spec to use SEEK_SET, SEEK_CUR, and SEEK_END for some purpose different from the usage of the standard C library, so I don't see that this is a bug in Octave. jwe
Thanks for posting John's response and that's what I expected. I'll have a look at it, but before we can switch any includes it has to be 100% certain that this doesn't screw up octave's I/O in some other place since it clearly wasn't coded with this in mind. Thanks, Markus
In the meantime, you can rebuild mpich2 without the cxx USE flag. Let me know if octave still doesn't build (but it should).
I had compiled hdf5 without mpi support, after main stream answer. It works. I will try other USE flag combination later...
This is a known bug in the mpi standard. http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/support/index.php?s=faqs#cxxseek
I'll close this one as WONTFIX since this really is something that should be done by upstream not us. Best, Markus
