[TRNSYS-users] Compyling with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 on Windows 7

[Philip Horn]

Dear All,

has anyone compiled a TRNSYS Type with Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 on Windows 7 and Intel Visual Fortran 2010 (using TRNSYS17)?
I face many problems with trying so (modifying Type 551 in special)...

One question is, what .exe file do I have to specify in the  TRNSYS Settings- Directories for "Fortran Environment"?
Standard  setting should be :C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDEV98\BIN\dfdev.exe I guess...
But for MS VS 2010 I can not find the dfdev.exe file.
The C++ environment path should change as well then I guess, right?

and what about the compiler command "msdev.exe" ? What should I use here?

Up to what I've read till now it makes sense to use a windows XP machine and Compaqu Visual fortran 6.6B.
Then the compiling should be pretty straight forward.
Can someone confirm that, or give any advice?

I am currently reading into "language W" and "W editor" from CSTB as well to check wether this would do the job.

Would be great to get some input from the experience users out there!!

Thanks a lot in advance!!!

Best,
Philip
