Hi,
I am trying to compile a C++ code which has the following include files:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cmath>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
When I was trying to compile, it was apparently looking for these include files and following was the error I got:
icc: error #10417: Problem setting up the Intel(R) Compiler compilation environment. Requires 'C++ include files' setting gathered from 'g++'
Following are the details of the compiler I was using:
OS info and version: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 64-bit
Compiler version: parallel_studio_xe_2020_update4_professional_edition
Where can I get these include files from, are these compiler specific?
Thank you.

Hi,
Thank you for the information. It seems you haven’t sourced the compilervars.sh file. Please source the compilervars.sh file, it is present in the parallel studio folder path
<path to parallel studio folder>/intel-parallel-studio/compilers_and_libraries_<version>/linux/bin
To source the file, execute
source compilervars.sh
See if the error persists

Hi Gopika,
When I tried to source by using the following command:
source /home/user/Intel-sw-download-folder/bin/compilervars.sh
following was the result:
compilervars.sh [-arch] <arch> [-platform <platform>]
<arch> must be one of the following:
ia32 : Set up for IA-32 target.
intel64 : Set up for Intel(R)64 target.
<platform> must be of the following:
android : Set to Android* target.
linux : Set to Linux* target.(default)
If the arguments to the sourced script are ignored (consult docs
for your shell) the alternative way to specify target is environment
variables COMPILERVARS_ARCHITECTURE to pass <arch> to the script
and COMPILERVARS_PLATFORM to pass <platform>
So, I tried the following command:
source /home/user/Intel-sw-download-folder/bin/compilervars.sh intel64 linux
yet again, it gave me the same result as the following:
compilervars.sh [-arch] <arch> [-platform <platform>]
<arch> must be one of the following:
ia32 : Set up for IA-32 target.
intel64 : Set up for Intel(R)64 target.
<platform> must be of the following:
android : Set to Android* target.
linux : Set to Linux* target.(default)
If the arguments to the sourced script are ignored (consult docs
for your shell) the alternative way to specify target is environment
variables COMPILERVARS_ARCHITECTURE to pass <arch> to the script
and COMPILERVARS_PLATFORM to pass <platform>
I appreciate your help in this regard.
Thank you very much.

Hi,
Thank you for the update. Please try these solutions. See whether you can include files after that.
1.
source compilervars.sh intel64
instead of source compilervars.sh intel64 linux and try icc --version. Ensure you're getting an output.
2. Ensure you’ve installed all the components in parallel studio xe, including intel C++ Compiler and sourced psxevars.sh.
NOTE : Intel Parallel Studio has been rebranded as oneAPI. To get the equivalent software development environment as Intel Parallel Studio download the oneAPI Base Toolkit and the oneAPI HPC Toolkit from here, https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/tools/oneapi/all-toolkits.html.

Hi Gopika,
Thank you for checking back with me. As you had suggested I tried the following two commands and the following are the outputs that I got:
1. source compilervars.sh intel64 instead of source compilervars.sh intel64 linux:
command used: source /home/user/Intel-sw-download-
This appeared to have worked because upon executing the command I didn't get any message..
and try icc --version. Ensure you're getting an output.:
command used: /home/user/Intel-sw-download-
Following was the message that I got:
icc: error #10417: Problem setting up the Intel(R) Compiler compilation environment. Requires 'C++ include files' setting gathered from 'g++'
2. Ensure you’ve installed all the components in parallel studio xe, including intel C++ Compiler:
I believe following are the components under my "parallel_studio_xe_2020.4.912" directory:
advisor_2020 , bin compilers_and_libraries_2020, documentation_2020, ide_support_2020, inspector_2020, licensing, man, psxevars.csh, psxevars.sh, samples_2020, uninstall, uninstall_GUI.sh, uninstall.sh, vtune_profiler_2020.
and sourced psxevars.sh:
command used: source /home/user/Intel-sw-download-
Following was the message that I got:
Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE 2020 Update 4 for Linux*
Copyright 2009-2020 Intel Corporation.
Then, I tried the previous command again (/home/user/Intel-sw-download-
Yet again I got the following message:
icc: error #10417: Problem setting up the Intel(R) Compiler compilation environment. Requires 'C++ include files' setting gathered from 'g++'.
Thank you.

Hi,
Thank you for the update. Compiling does not require complete path. We suggest the following steps again and see if you can compile your program. Please share the output after each step
1. Go to the folder where the C++ program to be executed is present.
2. Execute
source <path to parallel studio folder>/intel-parallel-studio/compilers_and_libraries_<version>/linux/bin/compilervars.sh intel64
3. Execute (full path not required, /home/user/Intel-sw-download-folder/bin/icc *.cc — not required)
icc --version
4. Execute either of the below. Full path is not required.( /home/user/Intel-sw-download-folder/bin/icc *.cc — not required)
icc filename.c //for c program
icpc filename.cpp //for c++ program
where filename is the program to be executed.
Hope this helps

Hi Gopika,
I still cannot compile my program with the steps mentioned here. I am sharing the output for each step:
1. Go to the folder where the C++ program to be executed is present.: Done
2. Execute:
source /home/User/Intel/compilers_and_libraries_2020/linux/bin/compilervars.sh intel64
Output: None (which is understood as the file is correctly sourced)
3. Execute (full path not required, /home/user/Intel-sw-download-folder/bin/icc *.cc — not required)
icc --version
Output:
icc (ICC) 19.1.3.304 20200925
Copyright (C) 1985-2020 Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.
4. Execute either of the below. Full path is not required.( /home/user/Intel-sw-download-folder/bin/icc *.cc — not required)
Executed: icpc filename.cpp
Output: icpc: error #10417: Problem setting up the Intel(R) Compiler compilation environment. Requires 'install path' setting gathered from 'g++'
Thank you for your help in my trials to compile my program.

Hi,
Thank you for the update. Please try the below steps.
1. Specify the gcc version while compiling like below.
$ export GXX_INCLUDE=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/6.4.1/include/c++
$ icc -gcc-name=gcc-6 filename.c
$ icpc -gxx-name=g++-6 filename.cpp
See whether the error occurs.
2. Try a simple hello world program like below and see if the error occurs.
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout<<"hello world";
return 0;
}
Compile and execute it
icpc filename.cpp
./a.out
Hope this helps you

Hi Gopika,
Thank you for your help.
Following are the problems that I still have when I do as suggested:
1. Specify the gcc version while compiling like below.
export GXX_INCLUDE=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/6.4.1/include/c++
In the following path of my compiler where I have the "lib" folder:
/home/user/Intel-compiler-folder/lib/intel64
The "lib" folder had only the following:
intel64 -> intel64_lin/
intel64_lin
ia32_lin
I did not find "gcc". There were several lib*.* files.
I did not find "gcc" neither in the "/home/user/Intel-compiler-folder/bin" folder. I had only the "icc" and the "icpc"
2. I tried a small hello world program (hw.cpp) as suggested and tried to compile with the following commands and following were the results/responses:
source compilervars.sh intel64
Also tried: /home/user/Intel-compiler-folder/bin/iccvars.sh intel64
Response: None
/home/user/Intel-compiler-folder/bin/icpc hw.cpp
Response:
icpc: error #10417: Problem setting up the Intel(R) Compiler compilation environment. Requires 'install path' setting gathered from 'g++'
Thank you once again for your help in my trials to compile my code.

Hi,
Thank you for the update. Please follow the below steps:
1. To execute
export GXX_INCLUDE=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/<g++ version>/include/c++
First execute
which g++
for us it displayed /usr/bin/g++, it would be different for you.
Trace this path to reach the include folder. Replace this path in the export statement mentioned above. Then compile the program by specifying the g++ version.
$ icpc -gxx-name=g++-<g++ version> filename.cpp
2. While compiling the hello world program, whole path is not required,
Instead of /home/user/Intel-compiler-folder/bin/icpc hw.cpp
Compile using
icpc hw.cpp
So, the order would be
>Go to the folder where hw.cpp is present.
>source <path to compilervars.sh>/compilervars.sh intel64
>icpc -gxx-name=g++-<g++ version> hw.cpp
Please share with us the outputs that you obtain after each step.

Hi Gopika,
Thank you once again for your detailed reply regarding helping me to compile my code.
When I try to execute: "which g++" it gives me the following output, can you please suggest me if you might know the remedy for this:
/usr/bin/which: no g++ in (/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/home/kveera/.local/bin:/home/kveera/bin).
Thank you.

Hi,
Referring the above posts, it seems the gcc is not correctly installed. Please follow the below steps so that we can ensure gcc is correctly installed and intel c++ compiler version is compatible to the gcc version.
1. Uninstall the intel toolkits (parallel studio xe)
2. Reinstall the current gcc version correctly or upgrade to the latest version of gcc.
3. Ensure it is correctly installed by executing
gcc --version
and
which gcc
4. For more information on gcc - icc compatibility please refer
https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/intel-cpp-compiler-release-notes.html
5. Re-install the intel toolkits (parallel studio xe)
NOTE : Intel Parallel Studio has been rebranded as oneAPI. To get the equivalent software development environment as Intel Parallel Studio download the oneAPI Base Toolkit and the oneAPI HPC Toolkit from here, https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/tools/oneapi/all-toolkits.html

Hi Gopika,
Thank you again for your help in my trials to compile my code.
I was able to re-install the gcc and the intel toolkits (after using the command "yum groupinstall development" in my RedHat Linux).
gcc --version:
gcc (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-44)
which gcc:
/usr/bin/gcc
However, I am still unable to compile my code. Following are the steps that I followed (along with the results in compiling the "hello-world program":hw.cpp
When in the folder where the C++ program to be executed is present:
1. source /home/kveera/Intel/bin/compilervars.sh intel64
After tracing the path to the include folder:
2. export GXX_INCLUDE=/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.5/include
3. Tried to compile using the following command:
icpc hw.cpp
Following was the result/output:
hw.cpp(1): catastrophic error: cannot open source file "iostream"
#include <iostream>
^
compilation aborted for hw.cpp (code 4)
Finally, I checked at the following location:
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.8.5/include
there was indeed no "iostream.h" file.
Any help in this regard is greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Thank you for the update. The error seems to be occurring because of the export command. Please compile the program without the export GXX_INCLUDE statement. So, the steps to be executed would be
source /home/kveera/Intel/bin/compilervars.sh intel64
icpc hw.cpp
Hope this helps
