FORTRAN 2020 VISUAL STUDIO 2019

[El_Zorro_Oro]

"Upgraded" to Visual Studio 2019 and Intel Fortran 2020; replaced VS 2015 and Intel Fortran 2016. I noticed that Fortran did not show up as language in the templates - so compiled as a console app.

Using default setup the compile time for a small Fortran program was 9 minutes rather than a one or two seconds on the previous version - there must be something wrong, but I have no idea what.  Same issue with X86 or x64 target. Debug configuration.

The Fortran code is attached - it links OK and runs correctly; just compile time is not acceptable.

The build log is also attached, many new options that I do not recogonize.

I just checked my install, VS 2019 Preview, Fortran shows up and the speed is fine, I suggest a reinstall and make sure you pick up all the necessary boxes on the install.

16.11 is the latest one - I would update.

Thank you for your reply.  I am in a big company so not so easy but will try to update.

[El_Zorro_Oro]

Thank you for your reply.  I did a repair and got no improvement.  So I will have to get IT to reinstall - big companies do not us worker bees have much control .

The gods gave us the central limit theorem, but it is IT that gives us the uniform distribution with a = b for everyone.   IT likes to keep to itself infinite power.  Thus proving that infinity times 0 is 1. 

Good luck.
