Intel Fortran 2024.2

DO not install the new version, VS 2022 does not recognize IFX only IFORT.  IE you cannot select it. 

You have to uninstall all previous versions otherwise VS 2022 gets stuck on 2024.1. 

I am going to try a clean install.

No ifx compiler.  Stock standard VS 2022.

With Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 Version 17.8.3 on Windows 11, I see both IFx and IFort in the property->general page (see attached screenshot). I have 2024.2.0 of IFx and 2021.13.0 of Ifort.

John will no doubt be using 17.10.3 released on June 18th 2024. Which comes after the release of the current versions of IFX/IFORT. From experience that is always a risky thing to do and should be avoided if at all possible. I appreciate if you are a new user you can only download what is available, one reason why I download the full installer and keep it until I deem it superseded. I am current running 17.0.5 and have no issues.

I will note the OneAPI release notes say the support VS2022 but it doesn't say what sub-levels were tested which is not so helpful.

Mea culpa: - I need to switch to a 64 bit environment for the old Fortran program, then exit and restart VS and IFX is there.

Andrew:  only IFORT works on the latest VS 2022 Preview.    You have to have a set formula when working in multiple languages on multiple computers some which will run W11 and some that will not.  I choose to stay up to date on all software, the one that causes the most problems is Windows 11 on some of the NUC 11 computers, but it is more that they give problems with motherboards and video than Windows, but it shows up in updates that brick the computer.  My old NUC6's just keep running, whereas 2 NUC 11's from 5 are dead after 2 years.  

As I install W11 often you can only install the latest VS release, the others are not available.   

In all things compromise is needed.  Pity about the NUC11's there are some duds there.  I am about to travel 1200 miles to replace one.

Can you update your original post with this info?

this has always been my experience. as a course of habit i always uninstall visual studio and intel fortran. then reinstall the current versions. after that, i don't update either of them. i have had instances where i had to completely reinstall windows because of bad intel fortran installs. i don't know what goes wrong. but it has happened to me several times. i dread updating intel fortran.

As John realized, he was in a 32-bit build environment where ifx is not available.
