parallel option ignored as unknown option

[slyc3]

I am getting this while trying to compile,

what am I doing wrong?

ifort: command line warning #10006: ignoring unknown option '/parallel'

[IanH]

It's /Qparallel on windows.

Thanks for your response. That resolved the central issue, however, I'm getting the following error when I use the parallelize option, which I don't get when I don't use the option. Looking at these messages, perhaps there is a not so difficult fix. Perhaps I should create a new thread (?). In any case, I'd appreciate any help with this..

This suggests you are linking two projects or are linking to an object which has been built with a different setting for libraries. I don't think that jist using /Qparallel would make this difference.

If you have a mixed-language application be sure that the setting for the run-time libraries (in C++ under Code Generation, under Fortran, Libraries) is the same. Rebuild all sources.

Also, it looks as if perhaps you have Fortran code without a main program but have built it in a Console Application project type rather than Static Library.

I don't have the knowledge to follow up on some of your comments without some more work or thought.

I find that I can compile O2 with Qparallel , O1, O2, O3, (no O option), O1 with Qparallel*, (no O option) with Qparallel*, (basically everything except O3 with Qparallel).

* I read somewhere that parallelization can only be used with O2 or O3, so I'm not sure what the results will bring, but it does seem to compile without issue in these cases.

thanks

Can you attach a ZIP of your sources and build script so that we can investigate?
