Intel Open CL Plugin for VS 2017 / 2019

Hello,

I installed the OpenCL Debug Tools + SDK. I can run my GPU kernels.
My Visual Studio 2017 Shows me that the "Visual Studio Tools for OpenCL" + "OCLDebugEngine" components are installed.
I can create an OpenCL Project using the Template.

However, I do NOT get the Intel "Code Builder Wizard for OpenCL API" as shown in:


https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/documentation/openclsdk-devguide-2017/top/intel-code-builder-for-opencl-api-plug-in-for-microsoft-visual-studio/code-editing-and-building/opencl-new-project-wizard/create-a-new-opencl-project-from-opencl-project-template-for-windows.html

I do also NOT get any entry in the VS menu bar as shown here:

https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/videos/debugging-with-intel-sdk-for-opencl-applications.html

 

The only Menu item that is added to the VS GUI is "Tools | Options | Intel OpenCL Tools => CPU Kernel Debugger"

Question: did I missed to install something? MY goal is to be able to debug OpenCL GPU Kernels as shown in the link above.

Thanks in advance,
Bernhard

That plugin functionalities have been removed in the 2020 versions.

You need to install System Studio 2019.
