Composer 2013 SP1 Update 1 as missing Xcode 5.0 ( 5.0.2 ), OSX Maver.

[Rene_Keilwerth]

Hi,

i installed the SP1 update 1 onto my XCode 5.0.2 and reworked the project settings of my existing projects.
i had added the command line option -fasm-block, because my code is using some assambler code.

however, during compilation, the compiler exists with an errcode 100, file/directory "/XCode/Developer/usr/bin/as" not found.
i just copied the file from my older xcode installation( XCode 4.4.2, Intel XE 12.1 Update 13 )
i also had to copy the folder /XCode/Developer/usr/libexec/as

now it compiles but i get the same threading errors like in 12.1 where the assambler read a file that is currently beeing modified by the compiler

ending up with undefined symbols, or unexpcted end of line in a ".s" file ( dont know the name currently)

i am sure that this is a problem of the wrong version of the as file.

So why is "as" missing?

Hi Rene,

Have you installed "command line tools" in XCode? They are not installed by default in XCode 5, and "as" is a part of these tools. Please see more details in Composer release notes: http://software.intel.com/sites/default/files/Release_Notes_C_2013SP1_M_EN_Update1.pdf (section "2 Installation"). If command line tools installed correctly, "as" should be present in /usr/bin/.

If you installed command line tools but still see this error, do you use "-dev-usr-root" option when invoking icc / icpc?

Yours,
Andrey

Hi,

thanks for the answer. I allready installed the command line tools but still got the error.
i am suprised that icpc looks for as in the XCode App folder.

so whats about that -dev-usr-root option?

shall i just add the to the additional c++ compiler options ( like -fasm-blocks) ?

Rene,

After installation of command line tools, you should have "as" present somewhere. By default, it is in /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/ as well as in /usr/bin/. icpc should have no problems finding "as"; however, if it does, you can set command line tools location explicitly with -dev-usr-root option:

icpc -dev-usr-root=/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/ test.cpp

(please note that you should supply "usr/" location, not "usr/bin/")

Thus, please:

1) Find where "as" is installed on your system. It should be in a subdirectory named "bin".
2) Add -dev-usr-root option pointing to the directory above "bin" (like in the example above).

Yours,
Andrey
