Compiling MEEP with Intel-15.0.6, Intel-MPI 5.0.3 and HDFT-1.8.17

Meep (or MEEP) is a free finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation software package developed at MIT to model electromagnetic systems, along with our MPB eigenmode package. The latest official version is 1.3 and can be found at Download Page for Meep Before you compile Meep 1.2.1, you need to first compile the libctl library. Compiling the libctl library is quite straightforward. After downloading, Step 1: Compiling libctl-3.2.1
# tar -zxvf libctl-3.2.1.tar.gz
# cd libctl-3.2.1
# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/libctl-3.2.1
# make -j8
# make install

Step 2: Other Prerequisites include guile and guile-devel. Do make sure you install these 2 packages which can be done
# yum install guile guile-devel

Step 3: Prepare Intel Compilers and Intel MPI environment
$ vim .bashrc

source /usr/local/intel_2015/impi/5.0.3.049/bin64/mpivars.sh intel64

Step 4: Compiling hdf5-1.8.17 See Compiling HDF5-1.8.17 with Intel-15.0.6 and Intel-MPI-5.0.6

Step 5: Compiling MEEP-1.3
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/meep-1.3.1_impi-5.0.3 --with-mpi \
--with-libctl="/usr/local/libctl-3.2.1/share/libctl" \
LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/libctl-3.2.1/lib -L/usr/local/hdf5-1.8.17/lib" \
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/libctl-3.2.1/include -I/usr/local/hdf5-1.8.17/include"
$ make -j 12
$ make install
