Re: [photran] Problem Implementing Eclipse 2019-06 with Fortran
|
Hi Stephen,
Yes it’s possible to use the PGI Fortran compiler with Eclipse. If you’re using a Makefile for CMake to build the project, then Eclipse doesn’t really need to know which compiler is being used to build the code. It just runs the ‘make’ command. Errors from the compiler will still be recognized correctly by Eclipse however, as there is a PGI error parser built in.
However, there is no support for creating an Executable project type with the PGI compiler. With this project type, Eclipse manages how the project is built and what options are passed to the compiler and linker. I would think it’s pretty unusual to want to do this in any case.
Regards,
Greg
