NAG Fortran Builder

Compiling in Microsoft Windows® has never looked so good
(or been so easy)!

What is it?

NAG Fortran Builder is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) for the Microsoft Windows version of the NAG Fortran Compiler. It has been developed by the team behind NAG's Compilers & Tools to provide comprehensive features that will be invaluable to developers, including a GUI. The command line version of the compiler is still included in Fortran Builder for users who want to persist with the previous interface.

Key Features NAG Fortran Builder, Release 5.2

Fortran Builder has a wide range of key features that make it extremely easy to use. They include:

How does it work?

Fortran Builder projects include Console Application, Static Library, DLL and projects using various numerical libraries. Once the desired project type has been selected and named, files can be added to the project. Existing Fortran source files can be added to the project using the usual Windows file opening dialogue. These files can be edited using the built-in Fortran-aware editor, which can also be used to create new files. The editor uses colour coding of syntax elements to make the source code more readable and features keyword completion.

Click and go project building

Building projects using the Fortran Builder is amazingly simple. A click of the build button and that is all. Subsequent builds only recompile files that have been updated. And if the default options are not suitable, it’s simple to change them using project settings.

Integrated debugging facility

Incorporated in Fortran Builder is a GUI debugger to help solver any runtime problems. The debugging system makes quick work of correcting code allowing the user to get back to the work in hand.

Access to expert numerical functionality

To enhance Fortran Builder even more, it comes precompiled with LAPACK and Simfit Libraries.

Expert help including Fortran language guide

The help system within Fortran Builder not only gives general advice but also will suggest the right compiler options for your scenario. It also includes an extensive Fortran language guide.
