compilation order dependency?

Jim_Vickroy — Tue, 05 Jul 2011 22:46:32 GMT

Hello,

I am usingIntel Visual Fortran Compiler XE 12.0.3.175 [IA-32].

I have a (simplified), three-file, Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Project that generates compilation errors after "Clean Solution" followed by "Build". The compilation errors appear to arise because a module (in one file) "uses" a module (in a second file) that has yet to be compiled.

All modules, in each file, individually compile without errors provided dependencies are compiled first.

I did not see how to attach a ZIP archive of the Project to this posting.

I would appreciate feedback on what my mistake is (and how to attach a file to a posting).

Thanks.

I tried building this in 12.0.4 and had no problems.

Thanks for trying this.

Some things to try:

1. Remove the files from the project and re-add them.
2. Split the files into individual files per module.

Thanks again Steve.

Since this may be an error in compiler version 12.0.3.175, I'll submit a request to upgrade to version 12.0.4.

I have (partially) tried your first suggestion; I will revisit that.

Moving each module into a separate file (suggestion 2) seems unappealing to me, but if I have no other short term option I will try that also.

Suggestion 1 (remove/re-add source files to Visual Studio Project) worked !

I do not know why this worked nor which component (Fortran compiler, Visual Studio) was the source of the error.

Well, it's not the compiler, but might be the Fortran integration into VS. I'll ask the integration developers about it - yours is not the first complaint about this I have seen.
