Is XP support finally dropped in 2017 release?

239 Views

Hello,

I noticed that in the release version of ICC 2017 the file libiomp5md.dll is importing InterlockedCompareExchange64 from KERNEL32.dll.

Since this function appears only starting from Vista, it means that XP support is completely dropped in ICC 2017. If one has rather big customer base still sitting on XP platform, he is in a big trouble.

Are there any chances to have a workaround for this?

Sincerely,

Michael
