Generating .exe file with Intel Visual Fortran Composer XE 2011

[kschmitt_dom]

A real baisc question:

I just attained trial copies of Intel Visual Fortran Composer XE 2011 and VS2010 in order to evaluate the compiler for use at my company on Windows 7 (32-bit). I began by creating a project and adding a simple Fortran code with a .for extension. The project compiles entirely in Debug mode without error but the Debug folder does not contain any .exe file. Might there be a default that is repressing .exe file generation?

Did you do a "Build Solution" or just compile the .for file individually? Select Build > Build Solution.

Also, it may be that you chose an inappropriate project type. You probably want Fortran Console Application. If you can't get it to work, please attach the buildlog.htm from the Debug folder and I'll take a look.

Steve,

Thank you.

Seems I started from a dll project type. I believe that is the course of action I have been taking with my Compaq VF6 compiler. Anyway, the Fortran Console Application project type works. Thank you.
