Intel C++ 9.1 compiler

[menchar]

Has anyone used the Intel C++ for Windows 9.1 compiler with CVI?

I'm running CVI 8.0.1 on WinXP SP2, I also have Visual Studio installed, with VC++ 6.0.

I 'm using the Intel C++ 9.0 template in the External Compilers dialogue in Build Options.

I get a link error for my DataMiner application:

  Undefined symbol '___intel_new_proc_init' referenced in "DataMiner.c".

Thanks.

A follow up -

When I try to use the autoparallelization optimization, by using the /Qparallel compiler switch, it seems to compile all OK, but in a file where an autoparallelization takes place, I get a slew of link errors in addition to the previously reported __intel_new_proc_init undefined symbol.

  11 Project link errors
  Undefined symbol '___kmpc_end_serialized_parallel' referenced in "operability.c".
  Undefined symbol '___kmpc_barrier' referenced in "operability.c".
  Undefined symbol '___kmpc_global_thread_num' referenced in "operability.c".

And the answer is ......

The __intel_new_proc_init symbol is in the Intel library libirc.lib, just include this in the project and no worries.

It's a function used to determine what processor the app is running on, and if any processor specific code will work.

Curiously, it also looks like using the recommended optimization setting for P4 processors, /QaxNP, causes a GPF !   This option causes the compiler to generate multiple binaries, the appropriate one selected at run time based on the microprocessor being used.

And another follow up -

Similar problem with Intel 10.0.025 compiler, CVI 8.5.1, when using autoparallelization option.

__kmpc_begin and __kmpc_end   undefined symbols link error.

Including the intel library liguide40.lib resolved these, but apparently incur the need to distribute the libguide40.dll
