Based on mature compiler technology from IBM, XL Fortran Enterprise Edition version 8.1 for Macintosh OS X features:
The IBM
XL Fortran Enterprise Edition compiler for Macintosh OS X is a high
performance F95 compiler based on the mature compiler technology
of IBM XL Fortran for AIX. The version designed for OS X is provided
as a command line compiler and generates very fast Fortran code
for OS X. The IBM XL Fortran Enterprise Edition compiler is compatible
with the Absoft Pro Fortran v9.0 IDE
which adds an intuitive graphical interface for the xl compilers.Copies
purchased from Absoft include the full XL Fortran Enterprise Edition
version 8.1 for OS X plus the Absoft Fx2™
Debugging Solution and technical support at no additional charge.
XL Fortran Enterprise Edition is now compatible with Absoft Pro Fortran v9.0 IDE. Absoft Pro Fortran v9.0 users can now install XL Fortran Enterprise Edition as a plug-in compiler and take full advantage of the integrated programmer's editor, Fx2™ debugger, compiler GUIs and command line. VAST-F/Vector, an available option can also be operated from the IDE. For XL Fortran Enterprise Edition users who do not own Pro Fortran but like the convience of an IDE, the Pro Fortran v9.0 IDE can be purchased separately. Pro Fortran v9.0 users who already own VAST, can use their existing VAST with XL Fortran Enterprise Edition at no additional charge. A special VAST compatibility module for XL Fortran Enterprise Edition is included with Pro Fortran v9.0.
