    Intel ships ‘multi-threading friendly’ compilers, from The Register.

    Intel Compilers 9.0 for C++ and Fortran are geared toward multi-thread programming, with appropriate upgrades to the debugging tools needed to polish such complex coding, even after the compiler has optimised the binary.

    “The Intel Compilers 9.0 enable C++ and Fortran developers to accelerate the development of their applications for multi-core and threaded environments,” said Bill Savage, general manager of Intel’s Software Products Division.

    Intel also said the new compilers offer application-level security options for Linux in order to provide the same reduction of buffer overflow vulnerabilities open to Windows users.
