Intel® Fortran Compiler 2025.3.2 is available (with Microsoft* Visual Studio 2026 support)

[Igor_V_Intel]

Intel® Fortran Compiler version 2025.3.2 (Patch release) is published. It is available for download from our product page HERE.  The Release Notes are HERE. 

The highlights for this release include:

• Added support for Visual Studio 2026 in the Compiler IDE Visual Studio extensions. Users can now install and use the extensions seamlessly with Visual Studio 2026, with no changes required to existing workflows.
• Fixed a memory leak that occurred when a subroutine with a secondary entry point was invoked via that entry and contained a local instance of a nested derived type with allocatable arrays, which were not properly deallocated on exit.
• Fixed a bug in the optimizer that causes a runtime divided-by-zero error
• When upgrading Intel® oneAPI Fortran Compiler(IFX) to the latest patch release on Linux, if you also use Intel® oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler(ICX), make sure to upgrade to the same version as this release from https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/dpc-compiler-download.html to avoid compatibility issues.
• This Patch release contains the latest performance and stability enhancements

NOTE: Starting from Intel® Fortran Compiler version 2025.3 you need to install Intel® Fortran Expression Evaluator (FEE)  extension manually from VS Extensions to enable all Fortran application debugging features.

Thank you, this is great news!  Many team members thank and extend their appreciation to the Intel Fortran for issuing this Patch Release.

The FEE is installed when I update to the latest ONEAPI if I use HPC, do you mean that is from an older HPC and now HPC does not contain the FEE?

For the person who asked if the editor finds the errors if you click on them, that is a positive.  

Plus the new HPC includes a C++ update. 

[Igor_V_Intel]

Right, FEE from the older version is not uninstalled with the installation of the latest oneAPI toolkits/compiler. You need to install the new version of FEE to get latest fixes for this component.
