Does the Intel Parallel Debugger Extension (IPDE) work in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and Fortran 11.1 (update 2 or 7)?

Hi everyone,

I'm confused! Does (or does not) the Intel Parallel Debugger Extension (IPDE) work in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and Fortran 11.1 (update 2 or 7)? Because I have read that IPDE is bundled with Intel Fortran, but I have tried and I can not be able to use /debug:parallel option. Also in Intel Fortran 11.1 (Document number: 321417-002US 28 January 2010) release documentation says "The /debug:parallel option is documented but not yet supported. It will be supported in a subsequent product update and will be mentioned in the release notes for that update.".

In case of does not work, meanwhile, How could I do debug OpenMP code?

I'm using Windows XP 32 SP3, Visual Studio 2005 and Intel Visual Fortran 11.1 update 2.

Thanks in advance

The Parallel Debugger Extension is supported as of Update 2. (There is no Update 7 yet.) You will have to add /debug:parallel under Fortran > Command Line > Additiional Options. Update 5 is current.
