One API with Fortran and integration with Visual Studio Community 2022 and IMSL libraries

[jejyd]

Hello,

I would like to reinstall my Fortran compiler with Visual Studio on a new computer, along with the IMSL libraries I purchased from Roguewaves a year ago (I bought a perpetual license and I have the installation file: fnl-2022.1.0-win110in221x64).

What is the right procedure?

Should I install the OneAPI Base Kit first, then the HPC Toolkit? What installation files are required?

Thank you, Pierre

I know nothing about IMSL, but the order for a current release of oneAPI (2025.3) to get Fortran is VS2022 then the oneAPI HPC Toolkit.  For 2025.0 and later, the HPC Toolkit includes all the components from the Base Toolkit.  Note also that the current validated version of VS2022 is 17.14.7 - later versions may well work, but this is not guaranteed.

BTW, if you only need the Fortran compiler and none of the other tools, consider installing Intel Fortran Essentials instead of the full HPC Toolkit.  This is an option available on the download page.

My suggested course of action is:

1. Install the Visual Studio command line tools and supporting libraries for C/C++ compilation and execution of the resulting EXEs. Verify using a short C program.

2. Install the Intel Fortran compiler and supporting libraries. Verify using a short Fortran program.

3. Install the IMSL libraries (static and dynamic) and module files. Verify a couple of Fortran programs that use IMSL routines.
