Since version 13.12 the Fortranproject plugin is included in the Code::Blocks installation.

Get the Code::Blocks IDE at or (preferred).

UPDATE : As the gcc page has changed significantly since this post was written, I suggest to follow the procedure described here for the installation of a 64bit version of the compiler.

A solution to this problem is given in this post. The latter two are known to have a recently fixed compiler-bug related to the automatic finalization of objects. Be careful if you are doing this while upgrading from gfortran 4.8 to 4.9 or 4.10. This will provide you with the latest build.

Go for binaries and get the installer if you are using Windows. In 5 steps everything is installed and you are up and running: Furthermore, installing this IDE combined with for example the gcc compiler can be done quickly and without much hassle, as is explained in this excellent tutorial. In addition, this IDE has been developed for Windows, Linux and Mac Os X, making it highly portable. It supports several programming and scripting languages including C and fortran, making it also suited for mixed languages development. This, however, does not make them less useful. Free fortran IDEs are rather scarce and quite often are the result of the extension of a C++ focused IDE. There are some commercial IDE’s that can handle fortran ( MS Visual Studio, or the Lahey IDE). When starting to use fortran, you are in for a bit of a surprise. If you are used to programming in C/C++, Java or Pascal, you probably do this using an Integrated Development Environment (IDE’s) such as Dev-Cpp/ Pascal, Netbeans, Eclipse, … There are dozens of free IDE’s for each of these languages.
