https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Fortran-Compiler/How-to-refer-to-the-Intel-installation-directory-in-a-project/m-p/818950#M46645 Hello,<BR /><BR />we have the following problem:<BR />A program that is written mainly in Fortran has a C++ main program to take care some<BR />start-up tasks. Because of thisthe linker does not automatically include the Fortran <BR />runtime libraries and we need to specify the directory where these are located explicitly.<BR /><BR />However that is dependent on the particular installation and the particular version.<BR /><BR />Is there a macro we can use (like $(ConfigurationName)or something else to make<BR />the project file that describes the program and the associated build process in a way<BR />that does not depend on the exact directory where the libraries are stored?<BR /><BR />(I thought IFIDEInstallDir might do the trick, but Visual Studio does not know <BR />about it. We are using Intel Fortran 11.x)<BR /><BR />Regards,<BR /><BR />Arjen Fri, 21 Jan 2011 12:49:19 GMT Arjen_Markus 2011-01-21T12:49:19Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Intel-Fortran-Compiler/How-to-refer-to-the-Intel-installation-directory-in-a-project/m-p/818950#M46645 Hello,<BR /><BR />we have the following problem:<BR />A program that is written mainly in Fortran has a C++ main program to take care some<BR />start-up tasks.

This will get you to the 11.1\nnn folder.<BR /><BR />Edited to correct name.

And if you're using ifort 12.n, it'll be $(IFORT_COMPILER12).

I'll also note that the subfolder structure changed in version 12, so you can't just switch the environment variable names.
