Hi,
PGI 6.0 for Windows was very unstable, I tried to compile our code, but gave up after a while. We are also using PGI Compilers under Linux, and there PGI 6.2 was the first 6.x release that we were able to use (and we are still using it for X86_64 systems).
So 6.0 will simply not work for several other reasons. I was hoping that PGI 7.0 will be usable the same way 5.2 was on Windows, and thought that the PG Visual Fortran is the one that should work with MS C… We are porting Unix code, and I was waiting several months for a new PGI on Windows version, simply to be able to use all those Makefiles on the bash that comes with PGI.
Will there ever by a Fortran Compiler for Windows that fully supports gcc from PGI?
By the way: Is there any flag to tell pgf90 7.0 to link *.a libraries instead of seraching for *.lib files when using -lname ?
