Software

Since 2020, Intel Fortran compiler has been free to install. To run latest blupf90 programs on your computer, it will require installation of the Fortran libraries including MKL. We have been providing the blupf90 programs compiled with the old Intel Fortran Compiler, but it will be terminated to update the binaries compiled with the old compiler by the end of December in 2024. We will keep the old versions with no updates for a while. To use new updated blupf90 binaries, users need to install Intel Fortran Libraries (and MKL) (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/fortran-compiler.html#gs.482bvo).

In 2024, Intel Fortran Compiler will be changed from ifort to ifx. All our binaries will eventually be compiled with ifx, probably stating in 2025. This transition may take one or two years (2025-2026). It will be recommended to install Intel Fortran Libraries 2023 or later (2024 or later for ifx) versions (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/release-notes/oneapi-fortran-compiler-release-notes.html).

The Mac versions may be discontinued in Intel Fortran, but the blupf90 binaries will be kept for a while.
