About this tag
Fortran is a legacy programming language still used in scientific and high-performance computing. On WindowsForum.com, discussions cover Fortran compiler compatibility with modern Windows versions, including issues moving from Windows 7 to Windows 10 with MS MPI and Intel Fortran. Users also share nostalgic content like the classic 'Real Programmers don't use Pascal' article. Common themes include 32-bit vs 64-bit compiler support, legacy code migration, and MPI parallel programming challenges. The tag reflects both historical appreciation and practical troubleshooting for Fortran on Windows systems.

    Windows 10 The MS MPI is not working with Windows 10 as it used to work with Windows 7

    Hi everyone, I have a 64bit Fortran program that was compiled by Intel Fortran Compiler under Windows 7 pro 64bit and MS MPI 2008 R2. When I moved to Windows 10 and run the same program I noticed that arrays are not any more sent between tasks. I used to send the array variable specifying its...

    Windows 7 32 bit compilers

    I have some legacy 32 bit Fortran compilers which I use and work great on XP. I have also tried the compilers on a Vista machine (32bit?) and they work fine. I would like to upgrade to a Windows 7 machine. I have tried my compiler on a Windows 7 home edition desktop and it does not work on the...
