IVF 9.0 not integrating with Visual studio

[sankarnkp]

Hello,
I have a copy of IVF version 9.0 I am trying to install in my i7 HP laptop running windopws XP professional. I installed the complete (all components) of Microsoft visual studio 2005. Then I started installing IVF. When I install the compiler for 32 bit systems, it gives me two errors; both stating prerequisites not found or something like that:

1) First error is regarding SDK not found. However there was a browse button and I used it to locate the SDK folder.
2) Second error said Visual C++.NET 2002 or 2003 not found in the system. Without Visual C++ the debugger will not work. I had two options either to coontinue and have the debugger in the VS not work or quit installation. I continued the installation.

Later I installed the Visual studio integration hoping that it will resolve. The program installed correctly but did integrate the fortran with VS 2005. Now when I open up VS and try to make a new project, I do not even see an option for IVF.

Is this known problem? I tried at many places but almost all topics relate to IVF 10.0 and higher. The second error suggests it needs VS.NET 2002 or 2003. Could this be the reason? Is IVF 9.0 not compatible with VS 2005.

I appreciate any sort of help in this matter.

Thanks
Sankar

You must install the optional Microsoft C++ development package in Visual Studio before installing (or repairing) ifort installation. This can be done by repairing VS to add the additional component.

And it looks like from the release notes for 9.0.30 (see below), Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 was not supported yet. It is supported in the 9.1.039 version. What version do you have and can you use a newer version? Our 11.1 and 12.0 compilers are the current compilers with support.

Thanks Tim and Wendy.

I will check with my supervisor to see if I can upgrade the compiler. But in your knowledge there is no way to get this working right?

Thanks

Yes. You will need to use the 9.1 version which supports VS 2005..
