How do I set up an Intel SGX project using Visual Studio targeting a Linux host?

vishalsubramanyam — Sat, 28 Oct 2023 13:08:32 GMT

I'm running Windows. I want to write a program that uses Intel SGX on a Linux machine. How do I do this? How do I get the right project templates and Visual Studio integration?

Hi Vishalsubramanyam,

Intel does not support cross compiling for Intel SGX enclaves. Thus, there is no prepared Visual Studio template or integration.

However, other editors can be used to develop on a remote Linux machine via an SSH connection. For example VS Code can be used to develop and execute remotely. You may refer to Remote Development using SSH which allows you to open a remote folder on any remote machine, virtual machine, or container with a running SSH server and take full advantage of VS Code's feature set with VSCode, the remote can also be the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) on your own Windows machine. Refer to Developing in WSL.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Aznie
