Question about new XE Composer products

[DavidWhite]

Steve,

I note the the Fortran composer XE includes the MKL. If one purchases the Composer XE package with C++ and Fortran, is the MKL also included. I assume that with this combination, we would no longer need a separate MSVS license, is that correct.

I currently only have anIVF license, what would the cost be to upgrade to the C++/F license?

Thanks,


David

David,

I'm not sure what MKL has to do with MSVS here. Yes, both Fortran and C++ include MKL, as they have for a while now. You will still need to purchase Visual Studio if you want to use Intel C++ - that we sell a product with both Fortran and C++ doesn't change that. The VS2008 Shell we supply with Fortran does not support C++ - there is no C++ project system nor the additional tools and libraries C++ needs.
