Intel Fortran Compiler with Visual Studio

[ckiss]

I am very new to Fortran and have been suggested to use the intel fortran compiler with visual studio.

I am not able to find any one legit tutorial explaining how to install and integrate the both.

I have tried installing VS 2022 Preview and VS 2022 Community along with the intel HPC toolkit.

But as per the starting guide of intel, for choosing intel fortran options under project types, Im not able to find any (Attachment 1).

Also under tools->options->no intel compiler is found.

I had installed HPC kit and then ticked the visual studio 2022 for integrating which succesfully installs.

But I’m not able to find the intel compiler inside the VS 2022.

I’ve tried all the methods and support questions, but couldn’t succeed.

It would be really helpful if someone guided me through this from the scratch to be able to run fortran programs in intel compiler.

my VS 2022 specs are as follows

In which order did you install? It should be Visual Studio first.

Then you install the oneAPI compiler.

Uninstall all Intel oneAPI software. Then reinstall the HPC Toolkit

Hey,

Thanks for the reply.

I just downloaded the VS 2022 community first and then the standalone intel fortran compiler only and integrated with the VS 2022 community.

Now while creating the project, I am able to select the fortran language in the list of languages but I’m not able to view the intel fortran project type as specified in the starting guide of intel.

Also, I typed my first code and clicked the start which flashed the output screen and disappeared, whereas when I click the start without debugging, the output screen freezes until I close.

And

I have a doubt whether I’m running my code in the VS fortran compiler or the Intel compiler, as I was not able to change as given in the starting guide (Attached image)

Thanks a lot for the help.

My guess is that you need to follow the steps in Installing Microsoft Visual Studio* for Use with Intel® Compilers

[ckiss]

As @Steve_Lionel pointed out, it may be time to back out of everything and start over.

Remove all Intel software

Remove Visual Studio

then reinstall VS using the link Steve gave.

Then install either the oneAPI HPC Toolkit or the Fortran stand-alone component

Hi All, Could you let me now which version of visual studio and Intel Fortran would be required for Aspen v14?

[ckiss]

You would need to ask the Aspen people, but in general the latest version should work just fine. The usual issue with third-party tools is that they hardcode paths to the Intel Fortran scripts and directories - these may need updating.

Thanks for your response @Steve_Lionel. I actually have two problems:

1. MS Visual Studio does not communicate with Intel Fortran Compiler, I am not sure whether it was an issue with the installation.

2. When I try setting the compiler for V14, ERROR messages appear (screenshot attached)

The Compiler64.cfg in Aspen seems to not recognize VS 2023 or later version of intel Fortran compiler. However, I cannot find the appropriate versions of MS Visual Studio or Intel Fortran Compiler for download and install.

Do you recommend contacting ASPEN to modify the .cfg file? or to reinstall previous versions of MS VS and Intel Fortran, which I do not know where to find them?
