Intel Fortran Compiler version 11.1 now available

[Steve Lionel]

Intel Fortran Compiler version 11.1 is now available. Customers with
current support licenses can download it for no additional charge from
the Intel Registration Center at https://registrationcenter.intel.com/

The major new features in this release include Fortran 2003
object-oriented features (CLASS, polymorphism, etc.), type-bound
procedures and deferred-length character. For more details, please see
the release notes (available for download alongside the compiler.)

For Windows users, the included IDE is now based on Microsoft Visual
Studio 2008. If you are currently using Intel Visual Fortran with the
previously included Visual Studio 2005 Premier Partner Edition (VSPPE),
installing 11.1 will install Visual Studio 2008 Shell and will not use
VSPPE.

If you have questions, please post in our user forum (link below.)

Steve,

The second link you post below gives a "Page Not Found" from the Intel
server.

Also, could you please post a link to the release notes?

At my company we are about to upgrade to version 10.1 (gasp!). I may be
able to convince folk that an upgrade directly to 11.1 would be more
cost-effective.

Cheers

It would cost the same, really. If you extend your support term, it
adds a year to the earlier expiration. You can then get any compiler
released during that term. I would certainly agree that moving to the
current version would be better as it is actively maintained, unlike 10.1.
