Intel C++ compiler in windows 7 64 bits

[claudiobaezar]

I have a doubt,

recently, I have downloaded Intel C++ Compiler for windows, according System Requirements - Release Notes Update 9, Item 1.3 says:

"To use command-line tools only to build Intel 64 architecture applications:

* Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit Update for Windows 7* and .NET Framework 4*"

My system is Windows 7, 64 bits, I have installed Windows SDK 7.1 and .NET Framework 4 and Intel C++ Studio XE intel64, however, in start Menu under Intel Parallel Studio XE 2011 -> Command pompt, the cmd shell do not appear.

If tried execute the following comand, but ...

C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Intel\\Composer XE 2011 SP1\\bin>compilervars.bat intel64 vs2010shell

ERROR: Visual Studio 2010 is not found in the system.

I do not understand the excesive dependence of Intel C++ compiler with Microsoft Visual Studio, my intention only is build armadillo library in windows, but cmake do not work for me.

can help me someone please?

Hi, you can install visual studio and reinstall, i recommend you wear a software called your unistaller for clean registry of your pc.

Please try the instruction here http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/error-visual-studio-2005-2008-or-2010-is-not-found-in-the-system-when-launching-command-prompt-from-start-menu/

Also attached two files: simplified.
You can use "set_icl64_env_vs10.bat" to set up an Intel 64 cmd prompt.

Let us know if it works.

thanks,
Jennifer
