Intel Fortran Compiler oneAPI - Multiple Numbering System
The document posted to this article lists the numbering system for Intel Fortran Compiler, oneAPI (2021+). This list is meant to help PSCAD users to more easliy distinguish between the different versions.
Background
In Intel 18 and older, which are included in the "Classic" "ifort" products family, the numbering system is based on the year along with patches. For example, for 2015, the format is roughly: 15.x.x.xxx
Then, in 2019 and 2021, the numbering system varied slightly, with the release numbering similar to the following:
- 19.0.x.xxx
- 19.1.x.xxx
For new product Intel oneAPI, still included in the "Classic" "ifort" products family (2021 to 2024), there was a slight change to the numbering convention, as 19.2.xxxxx. Also, each version is also associated with a separate numbering convention, as 2021.xx.x.
Then, the separate and new "ifx" product was released as Intel oneAPI 2022 to present, with two numbering conventions. One system uses this convention: YEAR.x.x. The other system uses this convention: YEAR.xxxxx.
