Re: MPICH and Fortran90

The user's guide for MPICH says that the "MPI module does not provide full Fortran 90 support; in particular, interfaces for the routines, such as MPI_Send, that take choice arguments are not provided." From my point of view this is regrettable, since I want to send and receive data of derived type. I will be using Intel Visual Fortran 9 on Windows, and possibly Linux. If someone has used the Intel compiler with MPICH, and has experience with the choice arguments, I'd like to know whether they just generate compiler warnings or fail to compile. Thanks in advance.

I've done derived types with ifort 9 and MPICH 2 (although I subsequently switched to LAM and OpenMPI), but that was via mpif.h and not the module. MPICH 1 is problematic due to the lack of some of the MPI 2 inquiry functions.
