ISML libraries

[lynfortran]

I have a fortran program that used to go with digital fortran before I got the Intel fortran compiler.
When I try to build a program that uses the ISML libraries, I get the following error.
Error 7002. Error in opening the compiled module file. Check INCLUDE paths MISML
What should I do?

Thanks

If you refer to the IMSL that came with the Digital/Compaq compiler, that would be version 4. If you still have all the files (include files, libraries) that came with it, you can use it with Intel Fortran, by setting the INCLUDE, LIB and PATH environmental variables to include the directories where the IMSL files are located, and using the compiler option /iface:cvf ..

Compared to the current versions of IMSL (6 and 7), version 4 has one major difference, among others: it offers only the Fortran 77 interface. You have to calculate and allocate workspace most of the time. Performance-wise, you have to accept that code developed almost a decade ago has no support for more recent CPUs.

One thing is that module MSIMSL no longer exists. You can probably replace that with NUMERICAL_LIBRARIES - if you puirchased the edition of Intel Fortran that includes IMSL and installed IMSL.
