Installing Intel Visual Fortran Compiler

pvillers — Tue, 23 Aug 2005 19:38:08 GMT

Hello,

I have installed Intel Visual Fortran Compiler version 9.0 but I can't use it. However, I have Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 installed with Microsoft Visual Basic .net.

Can you help me ? Is it necessary to install Visual C++.NET if I have installed Visual Basic .net

Thanks.

Yes, Visual C++.NET 2002 or 2003 is required. Visual Basic alone does not provide the tools and libraries required by Intel Fortran.

Steve,

Thanks for your answer but I find that it's not very correct to buy two programming languages to use only one of them.

We know, and are looking for ways of removing this requirement in the future (not near future.)

All right Steve now you have confused me.....According to the CVF Migration stuff you EITHER need Visual Studio OR Visual C++ installed .....If I understood (this post) correctly you are saying you need both (or at least that his Visual Studio isn't enough)......This is important to me as I will have to upgrade from CVF before the end of the year to get the upgrade price break and was planning on checking into getting one or the other of the above packages (probably Visual Studio)......Pleaseclarify this for me......

Pierre asked if VB alone was sufficient. It is not. One can buy VB as an independent product, and as such, it will not allow for installation of Intel Visual Fortran. If that's all you have, you need to also buy and install Visual C++.NET or Visual Studio.NET. The same is true if all you have is C#.

Visual Studio.NET 2002 or 2003 includes both VB and C++ (and C# and J# and other stuff). If you have that, as long as you have the C++ component installed, you're fine.

Also, I think I may have confused things. Pierre has Visual Studio.NET. All he has to do is install the C++ component of it and he'll be fine.

I remember a discussion way back about the
downloadable Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit.
Wouldn't that satisfy the requirement, at no cost?

It does not satisfy the requirement. You can use that, in conjunction with the Microsoft Platform SDK, to do command-line builds as long as you don't want to build DLLs. You get no MS IDE support, of course.

I know that Visual C++ 2005 is not supported by the Visual Fortran compiler. Is this also valid for the 2005 C++ Express edition?

Thanks.

It is also true. In fact, the Express Editions are designed by Microsoft to exclude non-MS compilers from the IDE. so even when we do release the new version with VS2005 support. you will have to have at least the Standard Edition of VS2005.

You can make Intel Fortran work with the Express Edition from the command line without much effort. We may offer that level of support automatically in the future.
