Complier Toolchains

Compiler toolchains are modules that bundle together a set of compiler, MPI, and numerical library modules. To use a compiler toolchain, load the compiler toolchain module and all the submodules will be loaded. This will set variables such as PATH, CPATH, LIBRARY_PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and others. Other variable conventions such as CC and CXX are not automatically defined.

Since Chinook is an Intel-based HPC cluster, RCS defaults to compiling software using Intel-based compiler toolchains.
