Fixed Form Line Length

[George_Kardomateas]

Up to now I wasusing theDigital Visual Fortran and my codes have long lines. In Digital Fotran this was no problem,I would go to Settingsthen Fotran Language and then set the Fixed Form Line Length to 132. I just installed the Intel Visual Fortan and my codes have too long lines for the Intel Fortran. Can someone tell me how to increase the Line Length in theIntel Fortran?

The same option is available, if not as a separate project setting, in the Command line options. It's generally considered preferable to adapt to free form when you require long lines.

It is also a project setting: Fortran > Language > Fixed Form Line Length. It's really the same as in CVF.

Thanks so much Steve! One more question, which may seem too basic, but it is the first time I use the Intel Fortran. After the "Build" how do you run the code? In the Digital Fortran there was an "Execute ....exe" menu choice.

Hi George

(1) To execute use the dropdwon menu: Debug --> Start Debugging or Debug --> Start Without Debugging.

(2) The keyboard shortcuts for these are F5 and ctrl+F5, respectively.

(3) You can also add the debug Toolbar. For that use dropdown menu View --> Toolbar --> and make sure that Debug is checked. In the default toolbar there is no Start Without Debugging. You can use Tools --> Customize and then from command tab drag and drop the "Start Without Debugging" to the toolbar.

Its also a compiler directive:

!dec$ fixedformlinesize: 132

Available sizes are 80 or 132 (at least they were in CVF).

Thank you Abhi, this is really very helpful!
