XL Fortran provides
an interactive utility,
xlf_install,
that walks you through a basic installation. You can
use xlf_install to do any
of the following:
- Install XL Fortran V10.1 for Linux on
a clean system
- Install XL Fortran V10.1 for Linux on
a system where XL C/C++ Advanced Edition V8.0 for Linux is
already installed.
In this case, both compilers will use the XL SMP and
IBM MASS libraries provided with XL Fortran for Linux.
(For information about installing XL C/C++ V8.0 for Linux,
refer to the XL C/C++ Advanced Edition V8.0 for Linux Installation
Guide.)
- Install an update on a system where XL Fortran V10.1 for Linux has
already been installed.
In this case, use the procedure in Running the xlf_install utility to update a basic installation.
You should use the
xlf_install utility
to install
XL Fortran as
long as
all of the following conditions apply:
- You are installing the compiler to the default location, which is /opt/ibmcmp/.
- You agree to remove any previously installed XL Fortran components.
If any of these conditions does not apply, do
not use the
xlf_install utility. Instead,
see the procedures in
Advanced installation.
