Fortran Compiler License Question

We have the need for one developer to create, maintain and compile Fortran programs, but then we would prefer to build/compile those programs on a separate build machine for inclusion in a product for distribution. Will a single user license suffice? If not what do you suggest?

Is there a more approriate place to ask this question? Does Intel monitor these forums?

Yes, Intel participates in these forums. We strive for 24hr turnaround or less, we're within that window. Typically we're a little more prompt, but we are short staffed this week.

You should review your license information, typically in a dir such as:

/opt/intel/Compiler/11.0/083/Documentation/en_US/flicense

or similar (the language may differ from en_US).

Typically you might a 'single user' license. This allows you to use the compiler on as many computers as you wish so long as you are the sole user of the product.

Multi-user licenses or floating licenses obviously allow you to have multiple users on multiple systems. This would be typical of a software development environment where you have developers, QA, and build teams working.

Does this answer your question?
