Thanks Julien, I'm also looking for BluegeneQ toolchain files.

How do you intend these to be used? BluegeneQ-base recommends the platform file be BluegeneQ-static. BluegeneQ-static includes only BluegeneQ-base, but the call to the function in BluegeneQ-base is made in BluegeneQ-static-xx-xx.

Hi Mark,

Please note that I'm no cmake or bluegene expert, so the way I'm doing this might not be the right way. I'm especially not really sure about the value of the CMAKE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH variable. It just works for me and on the few BG/Q I have access to.

I'm using the BlueGeneQ-XL-platform.cmake attached as platform file by providing the parameter -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=BlueGeneQ-XL-platform.cmake when calling cmake.

This file sets the CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME variable that will take care of using the right platform files depending on the compiler (GNU or XL)
Then it sets CMAKE_MODULE_PATH to find the platform files that in my case are provided with my project inside cmake/Platform and defines the fact that I'm using the XL compiler.

Regards,
Julien
