The Intel(R) Fortran Compiler can generate code for IA-32 or Intel(R) 64 applications on any Intel-based Mac OS X system. You can build an IA-32 application on an Intel(R) 64-based Mac OS X system and you can build an Intel(R) 64 application on an IA-32-based Mac OS X system. IA-32 applications can run on all Intel-based Mac OS X systems, but Intel(R) 64 applications can only run on Intel(R) 64-based Mac OS X systems. Executables built with the Intel Compiler can be combined into universal binaries using the Apple LIPO utility.
For further information on components, see your Release Notes.
This documentation assumes that you are familiar with the Fortran programming language and with your processor's architecture. You should also be familiar with the host computer's operating system.
