So it seems there are two things to look at here: 1. At present, in CVS, openmp is used if the configure check for its presence goes OK. In that case the compiler flag -fopenmp will be added, in consequence _OPENMP should be defined, and the symbol omp_get_wtime will be required. With gcc on Linux this is handled automatically: the program is linked against libgomp. Apparently it's not handled automatically on OS X; we'll have to find out what's needed. 2. If you tell configure to "--disable-openmp", then it seems to me that the flag -fopenmp should not be added, _OPENMP should therefore not be defined, and so the symbol omp_get_wtime should not be required. What's going wrong with that? Can you check lib/Makefile after configuring with --disable-openmp? There will be a line OMP_OPT = and it should look as above, with nothing to the right of the equals sign. If openmp is present and not disabled it should say something like OMP_OPT = -fopenmp Allin _______________________________________________ Gretl-devel mailing list Gretl-devel(a)lists.wfu.edu http://lists.wfu.edu/mailman/listinfo/gretl-devel
