compiling Fortran code in VS 2022

[david47]

I just upgraded my computer (Windows 10 64-bit) to VS 2022 and the Fortran compiler in the OneAPI HPC Toolkit.  When I now compile my code, all compile and link errors are now written to a LOG file instead of displayed on the OUPUT window in the GUI.  I would like to see all errors in the Output window and not a LOG file as I have always had in previous versions of VS and Fortran.  I cannot find any info or options in VS 2022 to allow me to do this?  Does anyone know how this can be done?

Thank you so much for your help!

A couple of suggestions: 

• In Visual Studio 2022, go to Tools> Options, then navigate to Projects and Solutions >  Build and Run
  Under the MSBuild project build output verbosity, select "Normal" or "Detailed" from the dropdown menu.
   
• Click on the 'View' menu option. In the dropdown list, select 'Error List'.
  This will open the Error List pane, where you can see any errors, warnings, or messages that occurred during the build process.

Hi Devorah_H_Intel!

Thank you so much for the suggestions but neither one worked   VS 2022 writes all compile and link errors to the Log file no matter what I do.  When I tried to view the 'Error List', the Output window changed but reverted back to the original output when I performed a "Build".  

Any other ideas?  Is this the new "normal" for VS compile and build output?  I hope not!

Thanks again for your help.

Sincerely,

David

I have tested it in Microsoft Visual Studio Community 2022 (64-bit) - 
Version 17.8.5 and oneAPI 2024.2 work fine with the error list and output.  

Not all Visual Studio versions are validated for use with our compilers. 

It could be an issue with the latest version.

Click Help>About Microsoft VS in VS, copy and paste the info here.

Try to repair VS and oneAPI installer first - let me know if you need help with these. 
Can you post what your Output looks like after the Build?

Here is the about info.  Does this give you any hints?

Thanks so much again for your help!

Sincerely,

David

As a work around (once only), In MS VS (after build), open the build log, Grab the tab, and drag it into the tab area where the output is located. Leave this file/tab open. Then on subsiquent builds, this window will be updated.

You will lose the click on error/goto error.

Your issue is likely a case of too new of MS VS installed. I see you have 2022 17.9.6

My installation is 2022 17.8.2, and I have no problems.

Hi Jim and Devorah_H_Intel,

In addition to now having the compile and link errors to written to the output window, my executables will not run unless I put the "sycl6.dll" file in the Release/Debug directories.  Could this be part of the larger problem?  It appears that I am using the classic Fortran compiler.  Could all of these issues be avoided if I use the new HPC compiler (I believe it is ifx as opposed to ifort?)?  If so, how do I run with the new compiler?

Thank you both for your help.

Sincerely,

David

[jimdempseyatthecove]

The ifx compiler supports the OpenMP offload directives to GPU. These require sycl....dll. ifort does not.

This said, when compiling .without. OpenMP offload directives, the library (and associated .dll) should not be required (IMHO).

Older 2022 versions of the HPC toolkit and Intel Fortran compilers do not support the latest VS version, 17.9.6

Please refer to the article I have linked above - Intel® Compilers Compatibility with Microsoft Visual Studio* 

Please upgrade to HPC Toolkit version 2024.2 - which can be downloaded for FREE here

Hi Devorah_H_Intel and Jim,

Thank you both again for your help.  As for the 'sycl.dll' issue, I am not compiling with OpenMP and I am using the ifort compiler.  This is very puzzling except that but perhaps there is an issue based on your reply Devorah_H?  I am going to have out IT people install the latest OneAPI HPC and Base toolkits  Hopefully that should resolve all of my problems?

Thanks again!

Sincerely,

David

[jimdempseyatthecove]

If sycl.dll is called for and you are compiling ifort then I suspect you are linking in a library (or module) compiled with ifx requiring sycl

.OR. some other 3rd party library requiring sycl.dll.
