IVF 10.0 and Digital Visual Fortran 6.0

[ruoyan]

(1) I want to run some old programs madewith Digital Visual Fortran 6.0. Does IVF 10 work for this? (2) Is there problems to use IVF 10.0if there is noVisual Studio inpc?Thank you.

It should work just fine, and the necessary Visual Studio pieces are provided. I would suggest version 10.1 at this point. You will have to create a new project and add your sources to it, but in most cases just a rebuild is all you need.

For more information, see my whitepaper on migrating from CVF.

Thanks for advice. I purchased and installed IVF 10 already, but it seemed not to work automatically to open source code of Digital Visual Fortran.Do I need to install DVFin the samepcandthen migratefrom DVF to IFV? Thanks again.

No, you do not need to install DVF. Your source code files have a file type of .f90 or .f or .for, yes? Try this:

1. On the Visual Studio Start Page, click "Project..." to the right of "Create".
2. Under Project Types, Select Intel Visual Fortran > Console Application > Empty Project. Name your project and click Ok
3. Select Project > Add Existing Item. Browse to the location of your Fortran sources, select them and click OK.
4. If you have any include files, repeat step 3 for them.

You should now be able to build the application.

If you do not see "Intel Visual Fortran" listed under Project Types, then the installation did not succeed and you should contact Intel support.
