Hi Mukesh,
Open MPI is an implementation of the MPI standard. Its API is thus the
one of a library, which is contrary to, say OpenMP, which requires
changes to the compiler.
Open MPI already supports C, C++ and Fortran for virtually any
compiler and platform.
For what it's worth, there is little room to modify a compiler to
improve MPI bindings (maybe except for this[1]) without breaking the
whole MPI interface. How would you envision such a change?
