IVF 9.1 with C++ from VS 2008 or VS 2010

[ratel__gilles]

Just a question.

Here I have IVF 9.1 and VS2008 and VS2010 (I have also VS2005, but I prefer not install, and prefer use only VS2010), My question is: possible use C++ from VS2010 (or VS2008) with ifort command?

Now If I use Build environnement (dos) for fortran I-32 I get error:

| Intel Visual Fortran Compiler 9.1.024 Build Environment for 32-bit applications
| Copyright (C) 1985-2006 Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.
|
| Unable to find Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 or better. <=== PROBLEM
| Intel Visual Fortran Compiler for 32-bit applications will not function properly.

If I look ifortbars.bat

| REM @call "\\Bin\\Vcvars32.bat"
| echo Unable to find Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 or better.
| echo Intel Visual Fortran Compiler for 32-bit applications will not function properly.
| title Intel Visual Fortran Compiler 9.1.024 Build Environment for 32-bit applications
! ...

I change for
| @call "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\\VC\\bin\\Vcvars32.bat"
| ...

But if I test:
ifort -o hello Helloword.f90

I get error
ifort: error: unable to run '\\\\Bin'

??

do you have hint? a good ifortvars.bat for IVF 9.1 and VS2010?

Thanks

"My question is: possible use C++ from VS2010 (or VS2008) with ifort command?" -- No, because "ifort" is a Fortran compiler.

If you want to compile C source code, you need to obtain and install a C compiler, such as Microsoft's Visual C++, Intel's C++, etc.

Even the free downloadable Microsoft VC++ Express compiler is adequate.

The presence of the string "" in the startup batch file is a telltale sign that the Intel Fortran installer was unable to find an installed C compiler.

Check the list of prerequisites for installing Intel Fortran. If you do not satisfy some of them, but proceed with the installation, some functionality will inevitably be missing.

Yes ifort is a fortran compiler.

I don't understand why the error message:
Unable to find Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 or better
and
ifort: error: unable to run '\\Bin'

Request for C++ is mysterious for me...

The easiest way is to reinstall. (?)

The visual studio express C++ will be sufficient to support the 32-bit ia32 version of ifort for command line usage only (probably no debugger). Unless you have first installed a supported version of VS2003 or newer, the ifort install won't be automatic.

[Wendy_Doerner__Intel]

I should note the 9.1 compiler did not work with Microsoft* VS 2008. You will have to upgrade to a newer version of our compiler to use Microsoft VS2008 (also none of our compilers currently work with MS VS2010).
