To use the Intel® Compilers with Microsoft Visual Studio* 2019 you must customize the install and enable additional workloads.

Intel Fortran Visual Studio 2015; Intel Fortran Visual Studio 2015. Name: Intel Parallel Studio XE 2016 Version: CE C - Update 3 Mac Platform: Intel OS version: OS X 10.9 Processor type(s) & speed: Intel RAM minimum: 2 GB This is the Composer Edition for C which includes compilers, performance libraries, and parallel models optimized to build fast parallel code.

For Intel® C++ and Fortran Compilers for Windows*, it is necessary to install the Desktop development with C++ component from Visual Studio. This component is not installed by default. The Intel® Parallel Studio XE installation will detect the missing component and provide a warning, but the installation can still proceed. The component may be installed when Microsoft Visual Studio 2019* is first installed, or may be installed later.

To install the Desktop development with C++ component:

If Microsoft Visual Studio 2019* is not installed on the system:

During installation under the Workloads view (shown below), select the checkbox to install the Desktop development with C++ component.
To build applications to run on Windows XP*, check the Windows XP support for C++ component in Summary window
Continue with the installation

If Microsoft Visual Studio 2019* is already installed on the system:

Open the Visual Studio Installer (See Windows Start or Windows Desktop)
For the installed version of Microsoft Visual Studio 2019*, select Modify
Under the Workloads view (shown below), select the checkbox to install the Desktop development with C++
To build applications to run on Windows XP*, check the Windows XP support for C++ component in Summary window
Select Modify
Continue with the installation

Professional Edition as an example is shown below, but other editions are similar.

If you already installed Visual Studio 2019 and did not select the required workloads, rerun the Visual Studio installer and change the options as described above.

GNU* GDB

This section summarizes the changes, new features, customizations and known issues related to the GNU* GDB provided with Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2020 Composer Edition.

Features

GNU GDB provided with Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2020 Composer Edition and above is based on GDB 8.3 with additional enhancements provided by Intel. In addition to features found in GDB 8.3, there are several other new features:

Support for Intel® Transactional Synchronization Extensions (Intel® TSX) (Linux* and macOS*).
Data Race Detection (pdbx): Detect and locate data races for applications threaded using POSIX* thread (pthread) or OpenMP* models.
Open Multi-Processing Debugging (OpenMP): Visualize additional information about OpenMP* tasks, locks, barriers and others.
PTWRITE for Intel® Processor Trace (Intel® PT): Customized printing of PTWRITE payloads in the instruction history and function-call history.
Intel® Control-Flow Enforcement Technology (Intel® CET): New commands to display the shadow stack backtrace and CET status information.

All features are available for Linux*, but only Intel® TSX is supported for macOS*.

Using GNU* GDB

GNU* GDB provided with Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2020 Composer Edition comes in different versions:

IA-32/Intel® 64 debugger: Debug applications natively on IA-32 or Intel® 64 systems with gdb-ia on the command line.

A standard Eclipse* IDE can be used for this as well if a graphical user interface is desired.

Known Issues and Changes

Intel Parallel Studio Fortran Student

Linux:

No known issues.

macOS*:

macOS* 10.15 introduced new security features that affect debugging. To enable debugging on a system with System Integrity Protection* and Hardened Runtime*, the program or process that is being debugged needs to run with the com.apple.security.get-task-allow entitlement. This entitlement can be given to the program during the digital signing process and is typically added by Xcode* automatically for Debug builds. For more details on how to sign your binaries with com.apple.security.get-task-allow, please refer to Apple* documentation.
If you encounter the error message “During startup program terminated with Signal ?, Unknown Signal”, please retry your previous command. After some tries your debugging session should start and work as expected. This is a known issue we are planning to resolve in a future update.
Another known issue is the warning message: “warning: unhandled dyld version (16)”, which can safely be ignored. This warning will be resolved in a future update.

Fortran Expression Evaluator (FEE) for Debugging Fortran Applications with Microsoft Visual Studio*

Fortran Expression Evaluator (FEE) is a plug-in for Microsoft Visual Studio* that is installed with Intel® Visual Fortran Compiler. It extends the standard debugger in Microsoft Visual Studio* IDE by handling Fortran expressions. There is no other change in usability.

Known Issues and Limitations

Intel Parallel Studio Fortran Linux

Conditional breakpoints limited

Conditional breakpoints that contain expressions with allocatable variables are not supported for Microsoft Visual Studio 2012* or later.

Debugging mixed language programs with Fortran does not work

To enable debugging Fortran code called from a .NET managed code application in Visual Studio 2012 or later, unset the following configuration:
Menu Tools > Options, under section Debugging > General, clear the Managed C++ Compatibility Mode or Use Managed Compatib
