Intel Fortran 11.1 in Windows 7 / Visual Studio 2005

I can not run Fortran in Debug mode, even a simple "hello world" program; it runs OK in Release mode. It hungs-up when attempting to run in debug. This occurs only in my laptop, but not in a regular PC.

Thank you,

Have you applied the VS2005 SP1 and the update for "Vista" as described in the compiler release notes? Are you starting VS "as administrator"?

Is the update for Vista required, even if the OS is Windows 7?
I will try running as administrator.
Thank you

The Vista/win7 update to VS2005 (to be applied after SP1) is equally important in Win7.
Win7 doesn't have the pervasive requirement for run as administrator which Vista had. In most situations (e.g. updates) where administrator is required, the pop-up appears automatically.
Apparently, VS2005 support is expected to fall off in the future, although remarks about current deprecation seem to be overstated.
Early versions of ifort 11.1 weren't fully compatible with Win7. Versions which are still available from the download site should be OK.

I have now installed the VS 2005 SP1 and the SP1 update for Windows Vista. The problem remains; that is, I can not run Intel Fortran 11.1 in Debug mode, only in Release mode. When I attempt to run in debug mode, I set a break at the first command line; the program never gets that far, it looks as if it were running. The program becomes non-responding and the only way to stop it is through the Task Manager.
Thanks,

Does this happen with only a specific application or does a new console "Hello World" also have this behavior?

This happens with any application. Initially, I was trying to run an application that I have been working on in my PC. When I couldn't run it in my laptop, I tried the simple "hello world" just to see if it would even start. As I indicated previously, it run OK in Release mode.
Another member of my team here indicated having the same problem after he installed the Intel Fortran compiler in his laptop. He could not run a VS 2005 C++ application in debug mode. Once he un-installed Fortran, he was able to run OK. I have not tried to reproduce his problem in my machine, so I don't have any more details on that. But they possibly are related (he could not run Fortran in debug mode either).

Thanks

Which 11.1 update are you using? Can you try 12.1?

My CD only says Version 11.1 and is the Professional Edition. I don't have 12.1. We justrecently received 11.1 directly from Intel.

Assuming your license is current, you can register it (if you didn't create a support account when installing) and download a current ifort at https://registrationcenter.intel.com. I wouldn't be surprised if an 11.1 CD predated the full support for Windows 7.

We did reissue the CDs when Windows 7 was supported. You can get the version by opening a Fortran command prompt window and typing the command "ifort". But I agree with Tim that you are probably eligible for a newer version. I can't find your email address in our registration system, but your employer certainly has purchased many licenses from us. Please ask your software administrator for assistance.

I did register and have downloaded from Intel what I presume is the latest update. It is a file named "w_fcompxe_ia32_2011.7.258.exe"
Please let me know if this is the correct new Fortran compiler. If it is, then I will install it in my computer.
Thank you,

Alejandro

Yes, that is the current release for 32-bit mode.

This appears to have solved the problem. I can run in debug and release modes.
Thank you and best regards,
