Swift/T is an implicitly parallel programming language for composing functions and command-line executables into massively parallel applications.
The Swift/T user guide and prepackaged distributions are available online at the Swift/T homepage: http://swift-lang.org/Swift-T . We recommend that you start there if you are new to Swift or Swift/T.
Uncomment the MPI_INSTALL setting in exm-settings.sh:
MPI_INSTALL=${EXM_PREFIX}/mpi
Download and extract the mpich3 source distribution from: http://www.mpich.org/downloads/ e.g.
wget http://www.mpich.org/static/downloads/3.1/mpich-3.1.tar.gz
tar xvzf mpich-3.1.tar.gz
Change into the source directory, then use the provided build script to configure, compile and install mpich3:
cd mpich-3.1
/path/to/swift-t/dev/build/mpich-build.sh
Swift/T is comprised of several modules, which use two different build systems:
autotools/configure/make for C/C++/Fortran modules, and ant for Java modules.
You can build the modules separately, but the scripts and configuration files
in exm-setting.sh speed up the process and make it easier to consistently
configure and build the system. exm-settings.sh controls the build
configuration, and build scripts for each module (e.g. turbine-build.sh)
build that module from the module's source directory. The two most useful
helper scripts are fast-build-all.sh, for quickly rebuilding all modules,
and rebuild-all.sh, to do a complete reconfiguration and build, including
running autotools.
The main documentation for Swift/T is under stc/docs. The documentation
is in asciidoc format. You can look at the main documentation in text
format in swift.txt. You can also compile the documentation to html
by running:
./make-stc-docs.zsh
A sites guide that provides guidance for configuring Swift/T on various
systems is at turbine/docs/sites.txt.
