Configuring XL Fortran V10.1

After installing and trying out XL Fortran V10.1, you might need to re-configure the compiler.

If only one version of the compiler is installed on your system, you should use the new_install utility to configure the compiler. The new_install utility automatically backs up any existing configuration file and invokes the xlf_configure utility. Before you can run new_install, you must have root or administrator privileges.

For instructions, see Running the new_install utility.

You should invoke the xlf_configure utility directly only when at least one of the following is true:

For instructions, see Running the xlf_configure utility directly.

Note:
If you configure the compiler using xlf_configure, your output configuration file, xlf.cfg, can be written to any location where you have write permission. You would not need root or administrative privileges.
