XL Fortran is a standards-based Fortran compiler with extensive features to help you create high performance applications.
Advanced compiler options and program optimization technology let you generate compiler output optimized to run on a variety of processors and processor families.
- IBM® XL Fortran for AIX®, V12.1 now supports AIX V6.1 as well as AIX V5.3
- Supports a subset of the OpenMP Application Programming Interface V3.0 including addition of task level parallelization and loop parallelization
- The OPEN and INQUIRE statements have been updated with the ENCODING= specifier to indicate the encoding form of the file
- Enhancements to –qstrict. There are 16 new suboptions. These new strict suboptions give you greater control over optimization transformations
- –qreport now contains information about how many streams are created for each loop and which loops cannot be SIMD vectorized due to non-stride-one references
- Features a wide range of optimizing features that let you generate highly-optimized 32-bit or 64-bit application code to run efficiently on a wide variety of processors and processor families
- Provides full compliance with the FORTRAN 77, Fortran 90, and Fortran 95 language standards, and enhanced compliance with Fortran 2003
