Precompiled Windows Binaries

The binary files in this release were built with the Visual Studio solution files distributed with OpenFAST (not using cmake), using

  • Intel Fortran compiler 2021.12 (p_oneAPI_2024.1.0.595) with Microsoft Visual Studio 2022
  • Microsoft Visual C++ 2022 (C), for build in Matlab
  • MATLAB Version: 2024.2.999 (R2024b)
  • Executables with _OpenMP or _OMP in the name are built with OpenMP libraries and linked with dynamic libraries.

The other OpenFAST executables DO NOT require these redistributable libraries to be installed. Instead, they were built with static libraries.
