Description Greg Watson CLA 2011-04-25 14:25:00 EDT 
I've installed MPICH2 on FC14. When I create a "Hello World MPI C Project", it asks if I want to set MPI preferences. I say "yes" then click OK. When the project is created, it has added -lmpi and -Lc:/mpich2/lib to my linker options. Neither of these are required (since mpicc already knows the path), but the latter is particularly confusing to the user.
Comment 1 Beth Tibbitts CLA 2011-04-26 09:41:54 EDT 
Ha, that's an ancient artifact from the fact that the first implementation (a looong time ago) for this was MPICH on Windows, which didn't have an mpicc command and required the link args.
I'll fix it.
Comment 2 Beth Tibbitts CLA 2011-05-02 20:03:35 EDT 
No longer sets the include path and link lib on the compile and link commands.
Assumes mpicc provides this info.

I may remove these field from the wizard entry panel, I don't think they are used anywhere now.
