What has experience with Intel Fortran 9.0 been like?
|
|
|
| We have until December to upgrade from DVF 6.x to IF 9.0.
Feedback on IF 8 wasn't great, and early feedback on IF 9 wasn't that good.
Have feelings improved?
We would be looking at Windows, mainly producing DLLs, and with code that is
does not stretch the arcania of Fortran 95 - WHERE statements and array
expressions are about as far as we have progressed in our migration. How
does command-line use compare with Visual Studio.NET?

You must have missed it (should've been in caps):
"Sorry, as you have discovered to your own detriment, you have upgraded
in chronological sense only - IVF is in no way, shape or form an
upgrade from the CVF compiler."
Rest assured, sun and CVF will continue to shine come december. It may
get even get brighter; heard of rumors that a multi billion class action
is in a offing regarding their attempted CVF coup de grace.

How does BW compare to HDTV colors... 'nuff said, stay put, and
away from IF virtual "Visual" nothingness.

But Max was talking about DVF. So, you're grinding your axe on the wrong
wheel.

Over the past month, I've encountered more than one situation where CVF
throws an internal error (see recent threads involving David Frank). Is
CVF still shining?
cheers,
