DEBUGGING SIMPLY FORTRAN CODE
I suggest to write the code in a more feature rich text editor ( here are some very useful suggestions) and use VS only for compilation and debugging.There is no support for any kind of code exploration.There is support for syntax highlighting, but absolutely no support for statement autocompletion.These tools are also available on Linux as separate applications, but on Windows they integrate in the IDE The IDE integrates with Intel performance diagnostics tools VTune adn Advisor.During execution CPU and memory usage are monitored and the runtime is tracked.This was the main reason I resorted to Visual Studio in the first place. Automatic determination of compilation order: on Linux I used the make utility to compile and link the various components of my code on Windows, due to my poor knowledge of its shell and lack of basic tools, I was not able to use make.The key features that I found interesting are:

VS is closed source and commercial software, but the community edition is free to use for non commercial purpose with a Microsoft account, the minimal functional limitation of this edition are not of any relevance for our use case. Microsoft Visual Studio 2019 (VS for now on) is a complete and feature rich general purpose IDE being general purpose it does not natively support Fortran development or other features which might be of interest in the context of scientific computing and, in particular, development of numerical analysis codes.įortunately though the integration with Intel compiler and diagnostics tools makes it a viable option for our use case. Intel Fortran is natively available on all platforms but on Windows is virtually the only free option, thanks to the integration with Visual Studio.
DEBUGGING SIMPLY FORTRAN SOFTWARE
NOTE: This guide was tested with the latest versions of the software at the time of writing, that is Visual Studio 2019 and Intel Fortran Compiler version 2021.3.0 IntroductionĪs of today Fortran is still one of the leading programming languages for high performance and scientific computing on the other hand HPC and scientific computing are still a highly specialized niche and, as a result, not many user friendly tools are available for Fortran development.
