How to use intel visual fortran with visual studio 2015?


Asked by Paloma McCormick on Dec 14, 2021 FAQ



To use the Intel® Visual Fortran Compiler with Microsoft Visual Studio 2015* Shell, it is necessary to install the Microsoft Windows 10* Software Development Kit (SDK). This article explains how.
Consequently,
During the installation of Intel Parallel Studio XE, it showed a message saying it's now integrated with Visual Studio 2019 but when I try to create a new project in Visual Studio, it does not show an option for Intel Fortran Compiler, so I cannot create a Fortran project. Any ideas on how to use the Intel Fortran compiler with Visual Studio?
Accordingly, Download Fortran compiler- Intel® Parallel Studio XE (its free too!) from https://software.intel.com/en-us/qualify-for-free-software/student. You need to register with academic email address. Install it after downloading.
Furthermore,
This means that Visual Studio cannot reckognize .f90-files as Fortran, and that the source code therefore is not colorized, e.g. comments in green, keywords in blue and so on. Does anyone know how to "tell" Visual Studio that I have a Fortran compiler installed? Maybe by changing some environment variables.
In addition,
First, only Intel Parallel Studio XE 2015 Update 4 or later supports VS2015. Second, you must do a custom install of VS2015 and select C++ support in order for Intel Parallel Studio XE to work.
