April 17th, 2008

A while ago I annouced that I had updated the seemingly dead MPI Ruby project to work with Ruby 1.8.x. I have been testing things out and have had some very helpful feedback. Things seem to be working well for me so I am announcing the official release of the library. With the recent "release" of GItHub I decided to put the good bits up there. The clone url is: 

git://github.com/abedra/mpi-ruby.git
If you are running leopard and have XCode Tools installed, all you have to do is: 

$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install
and you should be in happy parallel land. If you don't have the new Apple hotness, you need to install OpenMPI. Happy high performance parallel computing!
