intel fortan command-line window

[solisgb2]

Hi

Is it possible to open a intel fortan command-line window from Visual Studio 2010 Shell?

I have tried with wiew->other windows->command windows, but I can not run commands such as cd, dir...

Regards

Luis

In that command window (View > Other Windows > Command Window) type:

Tools.Shell cmd.exe

But... why?

I'd like to use the compiler & linker from the command line

So use the shortcut which the installer puts on the Windows Start menu.

If I open the ms-dos window in this way, I see that environment variables are not set. I must run compilervars.bat.

It is possible to open a ms-dos windows from vs 2010 with the environmental variables already defined?

The command prompt shortcut which the compiler installs on Start menu automatically runs compilervars. Right click on it to see the command.
