libraries

I am going through the tutorial for parallel studio. One of the programs in the tutorial uses openmp. This program compiles, but the linker cannot find VCOMP.LIB. The document indicates that is is part of Visual Studio. I am using Visual Studio8. Where do I find this file. Is it in an SDK on micro softw web site.

VCOMP.LIB is part of Visual Studio 2008 and is located at "C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 9.0VClib"
What's the folder name of the OpenMP example you are trying to compile?

Thanks,

I found the problem. The files vcomp.lib and vcompd.lib are not part of the standard version of Visual Studio 2008. The are only included in the professional version of Visual Studio 2008. Intel's web site indicates that parallel studio will work with the standard version and it may very well do so if vcomp.lib and vcompd.lib were included. The vcomp dlls are in the standard version, but not the vcomp library files.
