It’s for Fortran, but used to work for C/C++ as well. There is an installation-guide still available online. Installation of this compiler used to be a real pain.

The Portland Compiler is also available (although not free).īut this is not the topic of this article, instead I would like to tell you about how to install the Intel Compiler on a Debian-based system. GCC will also include support for OpenMP in its next version 4.2, to be released some time next year – and this one is even free as in speech. I find this decision unfortunate, but of course I don’t know the logic behind it.Ĭompetition is on the horizon, as the Sun compiler for x86/Linux is already in beta (will be free as far as I know). I am being told by my students that Intel has changed that and the compiler is no longer free for private use, only an evaluation license valid for 30 days is available.

Affordable in this case used to mean free for private use, cheap for academia and very reasonably priced for everyone else. When it comes to compilers for this platform, the Intel Compiler is one of the few affordable choices available – at least if you need OpenMP-support.

I am also using Linux, more precisely Ubuntu Linux (even more precisely: Kubuntu Linux 6.10). Most of my regular readers probably know by now that I am developing OpenMP-codes for work.
