Total newb question about intel fortran and xcode 3.2.4

[thebuttonfreak]

Have the latest version if Intel Fortran and xcode 3.2.4. I have to use command line to compile. How can I use the xcode environment to compile? I've seen things online but as I am new to my mac and fortran (and programming for that matter) I am having a hard time figuring out what to do. It seems like nothing works.

Please help and I apolagize ahead of time for the patience you will need with me.

The Xcode integration is "limited feature" - that is, it does not support a full integration into Xcode. Two big drawbacks - you cannot debug, and you cannot compile F90 code with modules UNLESS you manually compile the modules in USE dependency order.

Open up your documentation: bring up Safari, point the browser to:

file:///opt/intel/composerxe-2011.4.184/Documentation/en_US/compiler_f/com.intel.compilers.ifort.docset/Contents/Resources/Documents/ifort/doc_files/index.html

From there, open the chapter on "Building Applications" and under there "Building Applications with the Xcode IDE"

But again, Xcode is not Fortran friendly. You may be better off with the command line.

Thanks so much.That's exactly what I was looking to do. I am writing physics code so i don't need much else.
