Does anyone know whether GPC can be made to work with Message Passing Interface code? MPI is available, to the best of my knowledge, only in Fortran, C, and C++ flavors. But I've got a whole lot of Pascal code, and I'd hate to have to rewrite it all in C for parallelizing. Especially since I don't know C ;-)
No, please don't. If anything, translate the MPI interface to Pascal (only the interface declarations need to be translated, the MPI implementation can remain in C or whatever it's in). This would be a one-time effort, and others could benefit from it ...
OK, that sounds like a solution. Any idea how horrible a job this is? Any suggestions on how to proceed? I haven't even bought the MPI manual yet, so this is all pretty new to me. I do know that there are a lot of MPI implementations out there, and I don't yet know which I'll be using, or how GCC-compatible it is.
