Overview
The Intel Fortran Compiler compiles Fortran source files on Linux* operating systems. The compiler is supported on IA-32, Intel 64, and IA-64 architectures. The Intel Fortran Compiler operates only from the command line on Linux* operating systems. The Intel Fortran Compiler Professional Edition 11.1 for Linux* OS includes the following components: Intel Fortran Compiler. Intel Math Kernel Library.

Starting the Compiler from the Command Line


Start using the compiler by performing the following steps: 1. 2. 3. Open a command prompt. Set the environment variables for the compiler. Invoke the compiler.

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:

ia32: Compilers and libraries for IA-32 architectures only. intel64: Compilers and libraries for Intel(R) 64 architectures only. ia64: Compilers and libraries for IA-64 architectures only.

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.

Using Intel Performance Libraries


The Intel Fortran Compiler includes the following performance libraries. Refer to the appropriate sections of the documentation listed for information about using these libraries.
