- A Professional Fortran Development Environment. Simply Fortran is a complete Fortran solution for Apple macOS and Mac OSX computers. Designed from the beginning for the Fortran language, Simply Fortran delivers a reliable Fortran compiler on the Mac platform with all the necessary productivity tools that professionals expect.
- Universal GNU Fortran 4.2.3 for Mac OS X 10.4 and higher. It is necessary in order to build R packages from sources that contain Fortran code. Unlike many other builds, this is a fully universal build of GNU Fortran that uses Apple's driver and supports all target architectures (i386, ppc, x8664 and ppc64).
- I have Mac OS X Mountain Lion (10.8), and XCode 4.4 installed, with the Command Line Tools package installed. Apple's Native Compilers As far as I can tell, the Xcode C / C / ObjC compilers use a fork of the GNU compiler collection, with llvm as a backend; the latter I figure enables compiling and optimising 'universal' binaries, for both.
- This package contains gcc-4.2 (Apple build 5666.3) including GNU Fortran for Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion). It is needed for Xcode 4.2 or higher since Apple has dropped gcc-4.2 from Xcode. It works with Xcode 4.0 and 4.1 as well, but there you can use the above smaller Fortran package instead. GNU Fortran 4.2.4 for Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard): Download.

Absoft Pro Fortran for Mac OS / G5 systems
Product OverviewAbsoft Pro Fortran for Mac OS is compatible with both Mac OS / G5 and Mac OS / Intel based systems – and it is the most complete solution in either environment. It runs native on Mac OS / G5 systems, installs in both 32-bit and 64-bit environments and can generate both 32-bit and 64-bit applications. With a few easy steps, it also installs and runs on the new Mac OS / Intel systems using Apple’s Rosetta. Code for G5 and Intel can be developed on a single system and building code between G5 and Intel Mac systems requires little more than a recompile. In addition to tremendous flexibility Pro Fortran provides the industry’s most complete Fortran development solution. Each copy includes: Fortran 95 (64/32-bit) and C/C++ compilers (32-bit G5 only), a powerful Integrated Development Environment (IDE) designed for Fortran programmers, programmer’s editor, the industry-leading Fx2 debugging solution, MRWE application framework, math and VAX/Unix compatibility libraries, graphics libraries, and free technical support.For Mac OS / G5 companion products such as VNI’s newest IMSL 5.0 Fortran numerical libraries are available in 64-bit and 32-bit versions. To take maximum advantage of the G5’s vector processing capabilities, the VAST auto-vectorizing and auto-parallelizing source code pre-processors are available as options. Power users on Mac OS Intel may want to purchase Pro Fortran for Mac OS Intel. |
