Intel OneAPI 2023.1.0 Classic compiler (version 2021.9.0) (FORTRAN, C, C++) and GCC 8.2.0 (for user-programmable features)Intel OneAPI 2023.1.0 Classic compiler (version 2021.9.0) FORTRAN (for custom solver modeling using User Fortran) and GCC 8.2.0 (for custom mesh import/export executables)Default GCC compiler supported by the OS versionIntel OneAPI 2023.1.0 Classic compiler (version 2021.9.0) (FORTRAN, C, C++) and GCC 8.2.0 (for user-programmable features)Intel OneAPI 2023.1.0 Classic compiler (version 2021.9.0) (FORTRAN, C, C++), Intel MKL 2023.1.0 and GCC 8.2.0 (for Chemkin API, Chemkin user-programmed subroutines and Forte output user routines.)

* Compilers are required only if you are using User-Programmable Features (UPF), User Defined Functions (UDF), or other customization options.

When installing the GCC 8.2.0 compiler for use with Ansys Mechanical APDL and Autodyn, see Compiler Requirements for Linux Systems for detailed installation instructions.


Note:  The software compiler versions listed above may not correspond to the latest releases available from Intel but can be downloaded separately from the respective vendors' customer sites. If you need to purchase/obtain Intel Fortran, note that you must register on Intel's customer website with your Intel Fortran license information. Once logged into Intel's customer site, you have the option of downloading previous releases.
