Getting Started with version 12 and S 2010

Hi,

I have been using the latest version of Compaq Visual Fortran for about 10 years now and I have upgraded to VS 2010 and Intel Composer XE (v 12). I have this installed on a new machine which will replace my current development machine once I get it working.

I did upgrade to Intel version 9 about 5 years ago and was able to get VS 2005 and it to work on a laptop but never saw the need to migrate there as CVF did the job.

Maybe someone can point me to a link for answers?

I have three questions:

1) I like the layout of VS 2000 and the CVF with the source tree docked on the left and the tabbedoutput windows docked on the bottom. This seemed to be the default mode. How do I get VS 2010 to look like that?

2) I am using Winteracter and none of my menus or toolbars seem to come up. They are not taking questions until they verify that their latest library (which I am using) is compatible with version 12 of IVF. Any suggestions there? I do not seem to get any errors or warnings.

3) I am confused about the projects and solutions. Each of my projects seems to have a vfproj and an sln file. My recent file list shows both, which means that I can now have only 5 recent projects instead of 10. Am I missing something with this new concept? I hava a Fortran library that I use and all other projects are executables. In CVF, there were not two different files for each project.

Thanks in advance,

Charles

I have solved problem 2 by adding the compilation of resources.

You can drag and drop the Solution Explorer to wherever you want it. If you find it becomes a general tab, right click on the title bar and select Float.

A solution is a container for projects. A solution may have multiple projects in it and this is useful for multilanguage projects or when you are using libraries. Rather than the Recent Files list, use Recent Projects and Solutions instead. You can adjust the number of items shown using Tools > Options > Environment > General.
