I know a lot about standard Fortran 90.
I know enough about MS Visual Studio 2010 to produce clean Debug & Release configurations.
I am trying to learn custom configurations now, to produce parallel multithreaded versions for my dual Intel Xeon/Win 7 machine.
I created a custom configuration based on Release, but set the target platform to x64, and selected multiprocessing, etc., and turned on various parallelization-diagnostic reports (which are very nice).
The mystery: I get no errors in the compile step, but the Linker step doesn't run and so I get no .exe.
I thought this might be related to /c appearing in the compiler command-line, but I see that it is there in the standard Release configuration, too, so probably that's not it.
There's something basic that I'm not understanding here. Doesn't "Build" = "Compile" + "Link" ???
