- PVM version 2.4.2 is now available on netlib.
- ---------------------------------------------
-
-
- This distribution contains a new, rewritten, Fortran library (libfpvm)
- that's easier to use than the old f2c library. The old library will
- still be included for those who don't want to switch. It also contains
- numerous fixes for minor bugs in the source and documentation and a few
- new ports.
-
- Note:
-
- This version (2.4.2) is semi-compatible with version 2.4.1. Pvmds of
- the two versions should interoperate correctly. Programs linked with
- one version of libpvm.a will not work with a (local) pvmd of the other
- however, because the libpvm-pvmd protocol has changed. The simplest
- solution is to recompile your applications with the new libraries.
-
- How to get it:
-
- To get an index of pvm-related files, send mail to "netlib@ornl.gov"
- with the words "send index from pvm" in the subject line or message
- body. To get the source code request "send pvm_tar from pvm".
