boost::mpi and python bindings for it.

 

Hi Bruno,

There is a boost::mpi library built on top of OpenMPI, MPICH2, IntelMPI [0].
In the introduction [1] they say it's just a wrapper for OpenMPI,
MPICH2 and IntelMPI. By using boost you could have some extra safety.

Example [2]:

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
  mpi::environment env(argc, argv);
  mpi::communicator world;
  std::cout << "I am process " << world.rank() << " of " << world.size()
            << "." << std::endl;
  return 0;
}

Python example [3]:

  import boost.mpi as mpi
  print "I am process %d of %d." % (mpi.rank, mpi.size)

Have a look :)
Janek
