What is FTranProjectBuilder For?
FTranProjectBuilder is for developing and running Fortran programs on your Mac. It is the only native Fortran programming environment (IDE) for the Mac. Use it to:
- Edit your code,
- Compile with the compiler of your choice, and
- Execute and view the output of your Fortran programs...All in one place.
FTranProject Builder manages module dependencies for you and automatically generates a makefile for even the most complex projects.
Who is FTranProjectBuilder for?
FTranProjectBuilder is for scientists, engineers and students who want to spend their time getting results, not playing with the system. It's useful for large, complex projects, but makes even simple programs easy to manage.
What does FTranProjectBuilder have to speed up program development?
- Single window interface
- Editor, console and notes views
- Project wide search. Find procedure definitions with a single click.
- Execution input from console or file
- Execution timer
- Errors and search results organized by file in an outline view. Jump to errors in any file with a single click.
- Add files by drag and drop, or import an existing makefile
What compilers does it work with?
Use FTranProjectBuilder as your development environment for any Mac Fortran compiler. Use it with gFortran, g95, Intel ifort, Absoft Pro Fortran, NAG nagfor, and the PGI pgfortran compilers. You can have any or all of these compilers installed and switch between them by selecting from a pulldown menu.
Uncluttered views of your project
FTranProjectBuilder shows only what you want when you want it. Make it look like a text editor with a source list. Show or hide compile and execute options. Don't work with those cluttered cross-platform IDEs. See the screenshots for how it will simplify your code development.
Built in Source Code Editor
FTranProjectBuilder's built in source code editor works like any other Mac text editor, but with features to make Fortran programming faster and more efficient.
Leverages the Mac's UNIX tools so that you don't have to
FTranProjectBuilder manages the dependencies, object and module files, program executable and a standard makefile for you. You spend your time working on your code. FTranprojectBuilder does the rest.
