Insall Problem Composer XE 2011

[andrew_4619]

I purchased Composer XE 2011 a few days back and installed it today.

The download links I was emailed gave me:

w_fcompxe_2011.3.175.exe and w_ccompxe_2011.3.175.exe

Which I believe are the Fortran and C components.

I ran the 2 installs (fortran then c) but when I interogate Visual Studio 'about' I get:

Microsoft Visual Studio 2008, Version 9.0.21022.8 RTM

Intel Visual Fortran Package ID: w_fcompxe_2011.3.175

I do not seem to have the C package properly installed (the C help is present). I imported an intel Fortran/C 11 solution (a fortran application with a library in it build from C code) and it did not recognise the C project file and would not build it. For the moment I have just linked with the libary that was built with version 11 and the fortran works OK after fixing a few errors with some non-compliant code.

Please advise how I can resolve this problem.

Best Regards

Andrew

Hello,
Thanks for using the forum. I will run this by our Intel Composer XE 2011 engineers and get back soon on this. Appreciate your patience.

Thanks,

what edition do you have for the Visual Studio 2008? Professional, standard etc..
Is it a VS2008 Shell coming from Intel Visual Fortran?

Please try "File > New Project", do you see any "C++ Project"? Or attach the "About" dialog info would help.

Thanks,
Jennifer

I ran the C install again, it shows in the installed features (see attached screen grab) that Vs2008 integration is not installed (in an error state). The install then proceeds with no reported error but it still does not show Intel C in Vs2008.

Is there an installlog file that might shed some light? Some support is required please.

Intel C++ will not work with the VS2008 shell which comes with Intel Fortran. In order to install both Fortran and C++, you need one of the Visual Studio installations which should be described in the installation notes (VS2005, 2008, 2010 professional or standard plus C++ ( including x64 component if installing the intel64 compilers) plus applicable service packs).

I purchased Intel Composer XE 2011 for Windows

which to quote the sales lierature "Includes Intel C++ Composer XE, Intel Visual Fortran Composer XE ".

Have I been given the wrong download links? Or cannot the two products co-exist in the VS2008 studio provided?

Please explain.

The sales literature says That composer XE inegrates into the VS2008 shell. Document http://software.intel.com/sites/products/collateral/XE/composer_xe_brief.pdf
