Intel Upgrades Software to Support Mac OS X Leopard
Intel Corporation today announced an upgrade of its popular software tools suite for Mac OS X Leopard, the sixth major version of Apple’s advanced operating system. The latest 10.1 version of the Intel C++ Compiler and Intel Fortran Compiler, as well as the Intel Threading Building Blocks, Intel Math Kernel Libraries and Intel Performance Primitives, have been optimized for Apple’s Leopard and Xcode 3.0 development environment launched last month.
Several Mac developers, including Apple’s own Leopard development team, Adobe and Autodesk, have used Intel’s compilers since the Mac OS X tools suite was introduced in January 2006. “Leopard, Xcode and Intel’s compilers give developers powerful new tools to squeeze even more performance out of the latest Intel processors,” said Bertrand Serlet, Apple’s senior vice president of software engineering. “Intel’s software works well in our Xcode environment, and the Intel engineering team does a great job supporting our Apple engineers and Mac OS X developers.”
