Wrong version in DisplayString for ifort in 2024.2

[Henrik_B]

Hi,

I installed the Fortran compilers from the 2024.2 release and noticed that the "DispalyString" and "CompilerInfo" that are written in the windows registry says "..2021.12.0" for the Fortran classic compilers (32-/64-bit). Should they not be "2021.13.0"?

These strings are used in other software to display installed versions and now I have two choices of 2021.12.0 which can lead to confusion..

I rather suspect there are no IFORT changes so it is indeed still 2021.12.

It is ifort 2021.13.0 in cmd
I will report this to the IDE team.

so still not fixed in 2021.13.1?

correct, that is not fixed in the patch release ".1".  VErsioning is <major>.<minor>.<patch> Patch releases only contain urgent fixes such as security.  And the patch is often for another oneAPI product and may have nothing to do with ifort or ifx, as is the case here.  Another oneAPI component needed a patch fix, not our compiler.  In those cases the packages are built with the non-fortran patched component along with our compiler untouched, save for a ".1" added to the <patch> number for our compiler.  The next major release or minor release contains bug fixes.
