By default brew install openmpi
uses clang
to create its wrapper.
I need to specify gcc-4.9
(Homebrew installed) for the wrapper.
I have tried
$export CC=gcc-4.9
$brew install openmpi
$brew install --cc=gcc-4.9 openmpi
$brew install --with-gcc49 openmpi
$brew install -CC=gcc-4.9 -CXX=g++-4.9 -FC=gfortran -F77=gfortran openmpi
$brew install openmpi --cc=gcc-4.9
$brew install openmpi --CC=gcc-4.9 --CXX=g++-4.9 --FC=gfortran --F77=gfortran
Finally, I've modified the openmpi
formula adding:
args = %W[
CC=gcc-4.9
CXX=g++-4.9
FC=gfortran
F77=gfortran
I still get
$mpicc --showme
clang -I/usr/local/Cellar/open-mpi/1.8.4/include -L/usr/local/opt/libevent/lib -L/usr/local/Cellar/open-mpi/1.8.4/lib -lmpi
Finally it was solved as follows:
1) Add environment variables for homebrew (you can also add these lines to your ~\.bashrc
):
export HOMEBREW_CC=gcc-4.9
export HOMEBREW_CXX=g++-4.9
2) Rebuild and reinstall openmpi
and its dependencies from source
brew reinstall openmpi --build-from-source
3) In the end you will get a message like:
==> Reinstalling open-mpi
==> Using Homebrew-provided fortran compiler.
This may be changed by setting the FC environment variable.
==> Downloading http://www.open-mpi.org/software/ompi/v1.8/downloads/openmpi-1.8.
Already downloaded: /Library/Caches/Homebrew/open-mpi-1.8.4.tar.bz2
==> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/Cellar/open-mpi/1.8.4 --disable-silent-rules
==> make all
==> make check
==> make install
Warning: open-mpi dependency gcc was built with a different C++ standard
library (libstdc++ from clang). This may cause problems at runtime.

On my MacBook I had some conflicts with XCode 6.2, which were solved following this instructions
However, I decided to stay with the clang
version to avoid issues with gfortran
.
