Intel Visual Fortran compiler and Visual Studio

Hello,
Can anyone tell me if the new Intel Visual Fortran 8.0 compiler will work with
VisualC++ 6.0. More specifically would it provide full debugging capability,
i.e, will I be able to view the value of Fortran arrays during debugging.
Icould get the Intel Visual Fortran 8.0 (IVF) to work with Visual C++ .NET but was not able to view fortran multi-dimensional array valuesduring debugging.
So I was wondering if IVF could be made to work with VC++ 6.0 instead.
We have been usingCompaq Visual Fortran(CVF) and VS6.0butare now trying to move to IVF since CVF may no longer be supported in the near future (Is that right?). In that regard, will IVF provide full debugging capability with either VS6.0 or VS .NET in mixed language programming.
Thanks,
Bhanu

I can tell you that it will not work with VC6.
Intel Visual Fortran provides full debugging capability through the VS.NET debugger, and also includes an independent debugger which can be used from the command line.

Thank you for the quick response. Could you also tell me if Intel Visual Fortran (IVF) compiler plugged into a .NET framework supports MPI programming (for windows). I plan to download MPICH implementation that works for Windows 2000/NT.
Since the key features of IVF lists only support for OpenMP, I was wondering if it would support MPI too.
Thanks

Please be careful with your terms. Intel Visual Fortran integrates into the Visual Studio.NET development environment, but does nothave anything to do with the .NET Framework. Intel Visual Fortran generates native code only, not managed .NET assemblies.
We have many customers using MPICH with Intel Fortran.

Hello, I' m trying to Work with Fortran and MPI in VS2005. first I installed Visual Fortran Compiler for Windows (9.1) then I installed MPICH2. I'm trying to compile a small code that I found a sample but I'm getting this error : "error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _mpi_init referenced in function _MAIN__" and many other related to the linker. of course I tryied to set the link external library to my MPI Lib and Include directory, but it still not working ...I even Added cxx.lib, mpi.lib, fmpich2.lib, fmpich2s.lib, and fmpich2g.lib to Additionel dependencies... Please help me to solve this problem. thank you

How is the routine mpi_init declared for the Fortran code? Is there a module or include file you are using? What compiler options have you set? Did you install a version of MPICH2 that supports the C calling mechanism (and not STDCALL)?
