Getting to errors in XCode

Hi,

I wonder if anyone out there uses the Intel Fortran compiler with XCode on Mac OS X?
I am used to the MS Visual studio, but am attempting to move to Mac. One problem I'm having is that, after building my code and getting a list of errors in the Errors and Warnings group, it is not possible to, say, double-click on an error and be taken to the line on which the error occurs (wherever that may be in the project).
Is it possible to enable a feature like this?

Thanks.

I believe I see the issue you described and guess that you are using our 11.0 Release with Xcode 3.1. There are other issues with the Xcode integrations from our 11.0 Release that impact other conveniences such as compiler error highlighting within the actual source view.

Since you are just starting your port to Mac OS, I recommend for now that you download our latest 10.1.024 from the Intel Registration Center (https://registrationcenter.intel.com) and install that. Then, under Targets, right-click on your executable and select Get Info. Next, click on the Rules tab and then change the Fortran rule to use the Intel Fortran Compiler 10.1. The 10.1 integrations with Xcode provide the convenience of double-clicking on the errors listed under the Errors and Warnings group to jump to the exact source location,and show error highlights within the source code.Once the code is compiling and running with 10.1, then you can move back to the 11.0 compiler.

I will report the issue you noted here with the 11.0 Release to our Xcode integration developer. Other errors with handling errors under Xcode when using the 11.0 Release were fixed recently, so that may also fix this issue. I will keep this thread updated on the status of a fix as I learn it.

I confirmed with development the earlier fix I mentioned will also address this issue you reported. That fix is expected to be available in our next 11.0 update tentatively scheduled for release near the end of March (2008).

The internal tracking id for both issues is: DPD200112358

This issue is fixed in the Intel Fortran Compiler Professional Edition 11.0 update, 11.0.064 (Mac OS).
