Setting Compiler Options

You can use the Xcode integrated development environment to set compiler options, including Intel-specific options. Follow these steps:

  1. Double-click the desired target.

  2. In the Target Info window, click Build.

  3. A list of option categories appears. The list includes several categories with Intel(R) Fortran Compiler in their title.

  4. To set an Intel compiler option in the Floating Point category, for example, click Floating Point. Click the Research Assistant icon and scroll down to display the floating point options.

  5. Select a Setting, such as Improve Floating-Point Consistency. Click the Research Assistant icon to view a short description and the corresponding option name (-[no]fltconsistency).

  6. To select an option, check the corresponding box in the Value column.

The next time you build your project, the selected options are used in the compilation.

For more information on the various compiler options, see Using the Compiler Options in the Xcode* IDE.
