doubt

Can I use the METIS package programs in a C compiler that work on windows?

RE: Metis 4.0 will compile in

Metis 4.0 will compile in Visual Studio on Windows. You need to use the preprocessor defines from the Makefiles.

RE: Is there anything else I have to do?

Sorry I'm rookie and still does not work for me.

I have installed Visual Studio 2008, I have included the files ".h" in C: \ Program Files \ Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0 \ VC \ include. Pmetis.c compiled by C: \ Program Files \ Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0 \ VC> cl pmetis.c, from the command prompt, and gives me the error. Is there anything else I have to do?.
Thank you very much.

RE: yes, just define "__VC__".

yes, just define "__VC__". metis 5.0 pre1 and 2 don't run within visual studio!!!

RE: ah, pmetis... sorry that one

ah, pmetis... sorry that one I didn't get compiles until now... but only tried it oncne for a couple of hours. Karypis is a Linux guy, thus don't wonder if things doesn't works immediately. but after you got it run you have to thank him as well for offering such a great tool for free!
