<div>Yes indeed. What I really meant was you can just compile with cake and use the wrappers, there’s no need to setup a special toolchain and get all the cross-compilation stuff going because the wrappers do all that for you.</div>

<div>On BGQ I am using clang instead of xlc o I’ve got a different setup.</div>

Thanks for that information. Could be a life-saver! However, please note that I checked with a local expert and he says, "if you want any optimization on the compute nodes you should use the cross compilers. Likewise, if you use optimization on your frontend
compile, you won't be able to run on the compute nodes. They're not fully binary compatible and they do not use the same OS. So your mileage will vary with this approach.”

thing to watch out for is the MPI and since vtkParseOGLExt and vtkWrapPython etc don’t touch that, you ought to be ok compiling
<br>
_<i>as if</i>_ you were going to run on the host node. If you use the MPI wrappers (I don’t), then all will be taken care of.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
