Wir erhielten folgende Nachricht:

Lahey Computer Systems will permanently close on December 31, 2022 Effective December 31, 2022, Lahey Computer Systems, Inc. will no longer license Fortran language systems. Lahey regrets we can no longer maintain the standards necessary to support your business. We appreciate that you selected Lahey to provide your Fortran language systems and services for the past 55 years.
Thank you,

Das bedeutet für uns, daß wir ab dem 30.12.2022 keine Lahey Fortran Compilersysteme mehr anbietetn können. Darüberhinaus werden wir nur in Ausnahmefällen Hilfestellung bei Problemen geben können und auch nur bei solchen, die keine Codeänderung der Compilersysteme erfordern.

Wichtig: Unsere LaheyKunden möchten wir darüberhinaus darauf hinweisen, daß sie damit rechnen müssen, daß es ab dem 1.1.2023 keine manuellen Lizenzaktivierungen mehr geben wird. Oft sind diese erforderlich, wenn eine Lizenz zum wiederholten Male neu installiert wird.

Fortran 95 Workshop mit Tom Lahey

Tom Lahey, Gründer von Lahey Computer Systems, Inc. kündigt für den 26.-28. September einen Fortran 95 Workshop in Incline Village, NV, U.S.A. an. Näheres: https://www.lahey.com/workshop.htm

LF Fortran Express & Professional - neue Version 7.2

Daß es vom LF Fortran nochmals eine neue Version geben wird, damit hatten wir nicht mehr gerechnet. Nun, Polyhedron's Integration des LF95 Compilers in Visual Studio 2008 macht's möglich. Die Engländer schreiben:
LF 7.2 for Windows has been released. The main difference between 7.1 and 7.2 is the inclusion of Visual Studio 2008 shell, upgraded VS integration, and compatibility with VISTA and 64-bit (although it remains a 32-bit compiler).
LF95 v7.2 is available in two configurations: Express and Professional: LF95 Express includes the powerful Lahey/Fujitsu Fortran 95 optimizing compiler, linker, command line debugger, librarian, support for creating DLLs and calling the Windows APIs, online documentation, and free e-mail support.
LF95 PRO adds adds Microsoft's Visual Studio 2008 Shell with Lahey's exclusive Fortran Integration, the Winteracter Starter Kit, WiSK, for creating Windows GUIs and displaying graphics, Polyhedron's Automake utility, Fujitsu's WinFDB Windows debugger, the Coverage Analysis Tool that detects unexecuted code and performs range-of-operation checking, the Sampler Tool (an execution profiler) that helps tune program performance, Fujitsu's Visual Analyzer, the Fujitsu SSL2 math library (an extensive library and a proven performer on Fujitsu mainframes and workstations) and the Fujitsu C compiler.

Die Enterprise Edition von LF Fortran verbleibt auf dem Stand der Version 7.1 und wird nicht weiter gewartet.

LF Professional v7.2 ist nun auch nur noch via Download erhältlich. Die Preise für Updates finden Sie in unserer Lahey Preisliste.
