[fpc-devel] FPC and OpenMP support.

[Alexander Todorov]

Hello to all,
are there any parallel code developers in the list?

I will have to work on a mixed mode parallel project using MPI and OpenMP.
There are some bindings in pascal for the MPI library which is ok.
Does fpc support OpenMP compiler directives? AFAIK no.
Is there a known pascal compiler that supports OpenMP?

Integrating such support canbe a great step towards making FPC an
industrial class compiler.
This will require a lot of work, that is not in the roadmap for now.
What do you think?
