Do library files need to stay in their intel specified directory?

I want to move three library files to a directory away from the rest of my intel mkl install to make it part of a project that is under svn control. Can I do this or does the entire library need to stay together?

Hi Jason,

If you are calling MKL static library (for example, mkl_intel_c.lib mkl_sequential.lib mkl_core.lib), then it should be ok to move part of them to a directory of project

If you are calling MKL dynamic library (for example, mkl_intel_c_dll.lib mkl_sequential_dll.lib mkl_core_dll.lib), as mkl dynamic library are loading at run time and willdependy on othe dll library in the MKL"bin" directory (for example, mkl_core_dll.lib, will load mkl_core.dll ormkl_def.dll according to your cpu type).In technical point of view, it is ok to move part of mkl dll library, ifyou know the requireddlls and the run-time environment. But for safe purpose, it is better to move all dynamic library into the directory in your project.
