How to install intel fortran compiler to Cygwin ?

[frainbbs]

I did it like this:
At the page http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/non-commercial-software-download/ ,I download the file named Intel Fortran Compiler Professional Edition for Linux , which verson is the latest 11.1.046 (l_cprof_p_11.1.046)
1. tar -zxvf l_cprof_p_11.1.046.tgz
2. cd l_cprof_p_11.1.046
3../install.sh

But something has happened like this :
Fairy@OFFICE /home/intel/l_cprof_p_11.1.046
$ ./install.sh
./install.sh: line 261: /sbin/ldconfig: No such file or directory
/home/intel/l_cprof_p_11.1.046/./pset/32/install.32: /home/intel/l_cprof_p_11.1.046/./pset/32/install.32: cannot execute binary file
./install.sh: line 303: /tmp/intel.pset.strings.Fairy.OFFICE: No such file or directory
ps: unknown option -- C
Usage: ps [-aefls] [-u UID] [-p PID]
Report process status

-a, --all show processes of all users
-e, --everyone show processes of all users
-f, --full show process uids, ppids
-h, --help output usage information and exit
-l, --long show process uids, ppids, pgids, winpids
-p, --process show information for specified PID
-s, --summary show process summary
-u, --user list processes owned by UID
-v, --version output version information and exit
-W, --windows show windows as well as cygwin processes
With no options, ps outputs the long format by default


I don't know how to do the next.
I think the Cygwin doesn't has" /sbin/ldconfig "
And how to process this? " /tmp/intel.pset.strings.Fairy.OFFICE "

And I don't know how processthe license "NCOM_L_CMP_FOR_NB3L-BGKBG76B.lic" , I put it unde l_cprof_p_11.1.046

Who can help me ? Thank you.

Sounds like you are trying to install the Intel Fortran compiler for Linux under cygwin on Windows, and that won't work. The Linux compiler is for Linux only. Only the Intel Visual Fortran compiler for Windows can be used under cygwin. This earlier thread (here) contains lots of details/discussion.

Yes! Thank you very much!

This is the effect of not specifying the path to Microsoft link in ifort.cfg. Example contents of ifort.cfg (for VS2008) (in the same folder as ifort.exe):

-Qlocation,link,"C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 9.0VCbin"
-assume:minus0,protect_parens,buffered_io,byterecl
-Qprec-div -Qprec-sqrt

If you have installed cygwin which (you should) you would likely see
$ which link
/usr/bin/link
$ link --version
link (GNU coreutils) 7.0

.....

Remember that link in cygwin is an entirely different command from what it is in Microsoft development tools. If you never use gnu link, you could remove it from /usr/bin, in which case you may not require the entry in ifort.cfg.
If you want to try linking with cygwin gnu ld, it's possible for 32-bit .obj, but ifort won't generate the options in posix format, so you will have the hassle of specifying libraries in a directory path including spaces.

Note that this thread is about ifort for Windows, so doesn't belong here in the linux forum.
