File Release Notes and Changelog

Release Name: Elmer-svn3162_nompi

Notes:
Win32 installer for the latest Elmer SVN development version
(currently based on the stable release 5.4).

Contains a beta version of the new pre-processor "ElmerGUI".

Contains a fortran compiler "gfortran-elmer" (gcc rev. 136212).

NOTE: There are two flavours of the release Elmer-svn3162:

* Elmer-svn3162_nompi (no parallel features included)
* Elmer-svn3162_mpich2 (parallel features included)

The best performance on multi-core processors is achieved by
using the release Elmer-svn3162_mpich2. This package depends
on the MPICH2 runtime environment v. 1.0.7, which must be
installed and configured on the system (use the installer
provided by Argonne national laboratory and run
"wmpiregister.exe" to add credentials for MPICH2 to launch
parallel jobs).

If you do not want to install MPICH2, choose the release
Elmer-svn3162_nompi instead.

Please uninstall any older versions of Elmer before running
this installer.

The installer will extract its contents by default in
c:\Elmer5.4 and sets up the following environment variables
for the current user:

ELMER_HOME = c:\Elmer5.4
ELMER_FRONT_HOME = %ELMER_HOME%\share\elmerfront
ELMER_POST_HOME = %ELMER_HOME%\share\elmerpost
ELMERGUI_HOME = %ELMER_HOME%\bin
ELMER_LIB = %ELMER_HOME%\share\elmersolver\lib
PATH = %PATH%;%ELMER_HOME%\bin;%ELMER_HOME%\lib

To remove the files and environment variables, run the
uninstaller in c:\Elmer5.4
