This implementation is applicable to computer systems described in section 2.1 of the Installer's Notes (see Installer's Notes, Applicability).

Any additional information related to this implementation, that came to light after the release of this product, is described below.

1. Using Intel Fortran 12.1

   The libraries in this implementation have been tested with a newer version of Intel Fortran

     Intel(R) Visual Fortran Compiler XE for applications running on IA-32, Version 12.1.0.233 Build 20110811
     Copyright (C) 1985-2011 Intel Corporation.  All rights reserved.
   

   and found to work correctly.

2. Using the DLLs from FLW3223DCL with the Absoft Fortran Compiler

   This implementation may be used with the Absoft compiler version 11.5. Further details, examples and compiled interface blocks may be found at www.nag.co.uk/IndustryArticles/absoft_compiler_windows_32. The source of the interface blocks distributed with this implementation is correct for this implementation but needs compiling with the Absoft compiler in order to function correctly.

   The Absoft compiler does not currently handle the very long names suggested as an alternative to the traditional NAG names. If this is inconvenient then you may adjust the nag_long_names.f90 file to have shorter names and compile this.

   Alternatively Fortran 90 allows a very convenient renaming facility via the USE statement. For example:

   USE NAG_LIBRARY, ONLY NAGMIN=>E04UCA
   

   allows the user to refer to the NAG routine E04UCA as NAGMIN.
