Tim, If you didn’t write the makefile, then Eclipse wrote one for you – making it a “managed” build. Anyway, though, I think to be able to take advantage of the module you loaded, you will need to re-start Eclipse, as it is not possible to propagate an environment change that is made externally to Eclipse – to a running instance of Eclipse. I would recommend stopping Eclipse, and then starting it again, from the shell that has the right mpicc loaded (the one you did the module load in). Eclipse *should* inherit the environment you set, I know this works for remote builds, but have heard of a potential issue locally – let us know how this works.

Subject: Re: [ptp-user] Loading Modules and PTP Dear Jay...thanks for the quick reply. I was actually running Eclipse directly from the head-node (running remotely is my next challenge). I believe I am using a makefile build (I just created a default MPI hello world C program using the template that comes with PTP). Hope that answers your questions. I am happy to help test any solutions, so just let me know. On Feb 2, 2011, at 5:37 PM, Jay Alameda wrote:
Tim,
Are you launching Eclipse from the head node of your cluster, or are you
using PTP's remote capabilities to contact the machine? Also, are you
using a makefile build or a managed build. We are working on a strategy
to make PTP work well with modules, this work is in a very preliminary
stage at the moment - and your question is an excellent question to ask
for sure!

Subject: [ptp-user] Loading Modules and PTP
Dear PTP users,
I have a question about clusters that use modules to change the user's
environments and whether this is integrated with eclipse/PTP. For
instance, I recently installed eclipse for the first time on our cluster
and installed the PTP components. I tried to compile my first parallel
project within PTP but I noticed through compile errors that I hadn't
loaded my MPICH2 module environment (that automatically sets up MPI paths,
wrappers etc.). A quick 'module load' later, I tried to recompile and
again I experienced the 'mpicc not found' problem. On the command line,
everything worked fine. I then restarted eclipse/PTP and everything
compiled without a problem.
My question is, can module/environment changes be picked up within a PTP
session without having to restart eclipse?
Apologies, if this has been answered before ad nauseam. Thanks in advance.
Tim.
