CVF made sounds, IFV does not.

I've made the switch from CVF to IVF10 - with a little help from Steve & Jugoslav, thanks.

In my Windows XP Control Panel - Sounds & Audio Devices Properties/Microsoft Developer, I have sounds selected for Build complete (ding) and Build error (chord), and in CVF these work fine, allowing me to do something else while I wait for a build that might take 5 minutes. In IVF this feature appears to be silent - at least I can't get it to work. What do I need to do to make it work?

And BTW, why are executables so much larger in IVF than in CVF? Some of my DLLs are five times as large!

With many thanks in advance

This seems to be a Visual Studio thing - Intel Fortran has no effect on it. I can get a sound on build completion in VS2008 with Sounds > Microsoft Visual Studio > Build Completed. This has no effect for me with VS2005, at least the included Premier Partner Edition. Trying a full V2005 will have to wait until I return to the office next week.

I can't say why your DLL should be five times larger, but this might happen if you have lots of DATA initialization. What actual sizes are we talking about?

[michael_green]

Some sizes of DLLs (Kbytes), taken at random:

	CVF	IVF
Buffer	192	772
Circle	156	740
Freq	160	716
Overlay	232	780

My larger application goes up from 1.96Mb to 2.496Mb. There is nothing much in the way of data initialization in any of these.

Thanks

I have not seen such increases in my own tests. Please open an issue with Intel Premier Support, attach a ZIP of one of the DLL projects (including sources), reference this thread and ask that it be assigned to me. I'll take a look.
