We're a little apprehensive about this move, though. When we upgraded from 6.0 to 6.2, we found that we had to recompile all of the Fortran DLLs in our project - not just the ones that needed work. Is this because the DFORRT and DFORMD DLLs are not downwardly compatible? Will we have the same experience going to 6.6? <BR /> <BR />Thanks in advance, <BR />Robin Olson Sat, 23 Feb 2002 07:55:57 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Software-Archive/Recompile-on-Update/m-p/984826#M26871 Intel_C_Intel 2002-02-23T07:55:57Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Software-Archive/Recompile-on-Update/m-p/984827#M26872 You shouldn't have to recompile, but it is a good idea if it doesn't cause a problem for you.
