Funny. Richard and I were both answering this question at almost the same time the difference being 600 miles apart :-)
Sorry we missed your post for so long. We weren't expecting this question on the Science boards. Our application is a mix of C++ and Fortran, and we use a variety of compilers on the 3 platforms (GNU, Microsoft, and others). Is there something in particular you are curious about? ____________ D@H the greatest project in the world... a while from now! |

Thanks! This is just the answer I was looking for!
Is there something in particular you are curious about? Well, yes. This is probably not the correct forum for this question either, but... Where can I find more information about volunteering programming skills for projects such as this or other BOINC science projects? I am wowfully ignorant of ways to help these project beyond letting my computer crunch away in their non-working hours or the proper channels to ask about projects looking for help with software (ya know, fixing bugs). Thank you for taking the time and effort to have forums to answer questions from the curious. |

A good way to help out is subscribing to the boinc_dev and/or boinc_alpha emailing lists and help test new boinc client releases for example. Some volunteers fix bugs too and send patches in to help make the software better.

Just out of interest is it possible to use the Intel compilers for the Linux apps? I know this is free for home users but im not 100% sure if its free for this project. Im told this is by far the best compiler out there (at least for Intel based chips) other than a few issues with AMD chips not getting as good an optimization as Intel chips.

We have bought the licenses for our Intel compilers. Although I think as long as you use them for non-commercial, academic use, you can use them without a problem. And D@H is certainly non-commercial and academic :-)

I remember getting them for my old Linux box free of charge. Although they didn't really like Kubuntu 6.10 so i didn't stick around and play too much.

Languages: Is this still accurate? I'm thinking of finding compilers that can compile source code for BOINC projects written in various languages not specific to graphics into CUDA code that can run on Nvidia GPUs, and using this to help some of the BOINC projects I participate in. I realize that the participants using Linux may be able to find out without asking, but I use Windows Vista only at present. Also, I have significant experience programming in Fortran, but not the other languages mentioned. |

Is still correct, only that we do not support the mac version anymore. About porting into CUDA, charmm is a major challenge. We are working on porting MD into CUDA but unfortunately for Docking that's a long term goal.

Nvidia MAY have announced a new compiler which can help convert Fortran into CUDA with less effort.
