Fortran Compiler Windows 10, 64bit, R2019a

Hello World,

my goal is to run some Fortran codes in Matlab. I found out that i need the mex function and some compiler.

So i download the MATLAB Support for MinGW-w64 C/C++ Compiler and installed him, but the fortran compiler dosen't work. C and C++ is running.

In the comments from the download link

https://de.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/52848-matlab-support-for-mingw-w64-c-c-compiler

there are many other people whit the same problem.

Can anyone help me?

Which Fortran compiler are you trying to install and which MATLAB release are you using?

[Waldemar Nidens]

I use MATLAB 2019a. I only installed the MATLAB Support for MinGW-w64 C/C++ Compiler

[Walter Roberson]

Mingw is not a Fortran compiler.

The only supported Fortran compilers for windows in r2019a are a couple of the Intel Parallel XE versions. Those are free for student use and otherwise expensive.

Some people manage to get g77 or gfortran working but they are not supported.

After i installed the Intel Parallel XE 2019. How do i make that matlab recognizes that the installed compiler?

Thank you for your support and the quit answer Roberson:)

[Walter Roberson]

One point in the small print of the requirements for the Intel XE support is that you also need one of the VS compilers as a base: you cannot layer XE compilers on MinGW.

Once those layers are installed then I think it is

mex -v -setup fortran

"Intel compilers require that Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 or 2017 also be installed on your system."

Answer 2

[Waldemar Nidens]

Thanks Roberson,

after i installed Intel Parallel XE 2019 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 it works. One thing is still to be considered.

At the standard installation of Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 the compiler do not get install. the installation need to be choosen custom and than you click the compiler that you need.
