Note: This list is not exhaustive; other combinations of hardware, operating system and compiler may also work.

4. Calling the Library from Intel Fortran

This NAG Library implementation contains interfaces that allow it to be called from Intel Fortran (ifort). The supplied Fortran example programs (located in the f_examples folder) may be compiled and run via the example batch files (from the batch folder). These will illustrate the compiler commands required.

5. Missing DLL exports for a few AD examples

A few of the AD example programs fail when run via the nagc_example_DLL.bat batch file because of symbols not exported from the main NAG Library DLLs. These examples work fine if linked with the main NAG static libraries, e.g. via the nagc_example_static_MD.bat or nagc_example_static_MT.bat batch files.
