The Intel(R) Fortran Compiler 11.0 compiles Fortran source files on Linux* operating systems. The compiler is supported on IA-32, Intel(R) 64, and IA-64 architectures.
The Intel Fortran Compiler operates only from the command line on Linux operating systems.
Start using the compiler by performing the following steps:
One way to set the environment variables prior to invoking the compiler is to "source" the compiler environment script, ifortvars.sh (or ifortvars.csh):
source <install-dir>/bin/ifortvars.sh <arg>
where <install-dir> is the directory structure containing the compiler /bin directory, and <arg> is the architecture argument listed below.
The environment script takes an argument based on architecture; valid arguments are as follows:
To compile a Fortran source file (for example, my_source_file.f90), use the following command:
ifort my_source_file.f90
Following successful compilation, an executable named a.out is created in the current directory.
The Intel(R) Fortran Compiler includes the following performance libraries. Refer to the appropriate sections of the documentation listed for information about using these libraries.
| Performance Libraries | See the... |
| Intel(R) Math Kernel Library | Intel(R) Math Kernel Library User's Guide included with the Intel(R) Math Kernel Library documentation. |
The documentation is located in the directories under the <install-dir>/Documentation/ directory. If you installed all of the appropriate components, you can find documentation on the following:
The Release Notes contain information on installing the Intel(R) Fortran Compiler.
In addition to the documentation listed above, some of these components include documentation in the form of Linux* OS man pages.
Note: If you selected to not install a component, the associated documentation is not installed.
