Can Intel C++ build programs without Visual Studio on Windows?

Hi all,

I don't have Visual Studio installed on my computer due to the lack of a valid license. Therefore, I want to build programs using the command-line interface and wrote a 'HelloWorld' program to test.

Before building the program, I ran the setvars.bat located in the oneAPI folder. The output is as follows:"

C:\Users\ABC>setvars
:: initializing oneAPI environment...
Initializing Visual Studio command-line environment...
:: WARNING: Visual Studio was not found in a standard install location:
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\<Year>\<Edition>" or
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\<Year>\<Edition>"
Set the VS2019INSTALLDIR or VS2022INSTALLDIR environment variable to
point to your install location and try again. For example, if you
are using the VS 2022 Build Tools, do the following:
set "VS2022INSTALLDIR=C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\BuildTools"
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI\setvars.bat"
Visual Studio command-line environment was not configured.

While building the program, an error message appeared:

C:\Users\ABC\sources\test>icx test.cpp

C:\Users\ABC\sources\test\test.cpp(1,10): fatal error: 'iostream' file not found

1 error generated.

I have checked many of Intel's documents but didn't find any useful information. It seems to be an issue with the environment settings. Any idea?

Thank you

No, Visual Studio is a requirement.
