Migration problems (from MS visual 2008)

[rguen]

Hello !

I'm using luxrender (http://www.luxrender.net/en_GB/index) and I'm developping some new feature on it.

I use MS 2008 since few months and I succefully generate my binaries.

I wanted to try icc but I got a list of issues ...

The best things I can have is a working binary, I can launch it but when starting a rendering I got a lot of error reporting missing "plugins" ...

luxrender use a systems of "plugin" to add functionality.

Hopefully I can use the "Use visual c++" button to revert my change and get a working copy.

On the luxrender forum they said :

"You need to include all symbols from the lux library at the final link stage, I don't remember the option for that with icc."

Probably someone can help me with this option at least ;)

Checking the "path" env to see if the IntelC's runtime library directory is on the "path".
if you have the IntelC 12.1, the runtime lib dir is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Intel\Shared Libraries\redist\ia32\compiler" for ia32 program, "C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Intel\Shared Libraries\redist\intel64\compiler" for intel64 program.

Hi,

I cleaned up all and add this to my path (in first) and it does not change anything :(

Did you know where is the option for "include all symbols from the other library at the final link stage"

Ok. so it's link time issue. It's probably the "lib" is not set up right.
how to you start your build? did you get the build-env or the command line using the Intel menu from [start]>all programs>Intel Parallel Studio XE 2011 > Command prompt....
this will set up the env correctly.

Or you can run the ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Composer XE 2011 SP1\bin\ipsxe-comp-vars.bat" ia32 vs2008" directly depending for ia32 or ""C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Composer XE 2011 SP1\bin\ipsxe-comp-vars.bat" intel64 vs2008" for intel64.
