CMake 3.29 is to have enabled oneAPI ifx with Visual Studio generator on Windows. I use oneAPI Fortran on Windows all the time with Ninja successfully, but have not figured out how to do so with Visual Studio generator.
How is the Intel oneAPI Fortran compiler used with Visual Studio generator? I tried invoking from the oneAPI command prompt (which works with Ninja generator) using CMake 3.29-0-rc4 (and nightly) like:
So I agree that information on how to use IFX with VS/CMake is not very clear. Here’s what I just tried and seems to work.
Using your example:
cmake -Bbuildi -G “Visual Studio 17 2022” -T “fortran=ifx”
With that it switches to use the LLVM compiler and when I open the solution in VS, any Fortran project now indicates IFX instead of IFORT.
thanks – however I get the same result with -T "fortran=ifx" as before. This is from oneAPI command prompt with CMake 3.29.0 and Intel oneAPI 2024.0
cmake -Bbuildi -G "Visual Studio 17 2022" -T "fortran=ifx"
