command line interface for Intel C/C++ compiler (in Windows)

[yaridor]

Hello.,

I am new to OneAPI base toolkit.  I downloaded the Intel C/C++ compiler for Windows (as part of custom installation of the oneAPI base toolkit). I would like to use its command-line (and not inside Microsoft visual studio). Where can I find its command-line interface for Windows ? 

Thanks, Yariv

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Intel Communities.

After completing the toolkit installation process you will have Intel oneAPI command prompt product in your system.

To access the command line interface, go to the start menu and search for Intel oneAPI command prompt for Intel 64 for Visual Studio 2022 and open it.

The command line terminal will automatically set the oneAPI environment.

Please let us know if you still face any issues.

Thanks and Regards,

Hello,

Thanks for the quick reply. 

I don't have "intel oneAPI command prompt" under my start menu.

So far I downloaded and installed:

1. a standalone Intel Vtune profiler package

2. customized installation of oneAPI base toolkit. I am attaching snapshots of my oneAPI base toolkit packages.

Did I miss anything ? 

Thanks, Yariv

Hi,

To access the command line, Please try with below steps 

1. Press win+R on your keyboard.

2. Type cmd in the run application and press enter.

3. Run the following command in the command prompt to initialize the oneAPI environment

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI\setvars.bat"

Please let us know if you still face any issues.

Hello,

I don't have the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI\setvars.bat.

See attached a capture of my folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI.

What else can I do ? 

Thanks for your continued help.

You do have Visual Studio Build Tools, VS2017, VS2019, or VS2022 installed before installing oneAPI?

If so,  the custom installation may be the problem

[yaridor]

Yes. I had Visual Studio Build Tools, VS2017, VS2019, or VS2022 installed before installing oneAPI.

I thought this is the normal way since during oneAPI installation, it integrates with already existing VS installation.

So what do you recommend me to do ? 

[MWind2]

I always got the default installation, so I would not know if there is some way to not get setvars.bat. I would try a repair, and if that fails, remove reboot and reinstall. You should have a setvars.bat, and you should see integration choices when installing. On 2022.3, I found an option to integrate with only the Build Tools. they are at https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vs_BuildTools.exe.

Did you choose integration with any of the Visual Studios installed or with the Build Tools when installing?

Hi,

Due to the custom installation of OneAPI Base toolkit, we think the setvars.bat was missing in your OneAPI directory.

To get the setvars.bat file, Could you please try uninstalling the Intel OneAPI Base toolkit and re-install them using the default installation procedure?

Please refer to the below link for more details.

You can also use the Intel compilers by sourcing vars.bat using the below command in the command prompt.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI\compiler\latest\env\vars.bat"

Please let us know if you still face any issues.

Thanks.

Before I re-install openAPI, I would like to try your other suggested solution.

I run "C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI\compiler\latest\env\vars.bat". 

After i run it, it still does not recognize "icc <filename>" in the same cmd windows.

Anything else I should do after running the "vars.bat" to get a cmd window to run ICC from command-line ? 

Thanks, Yariv

Hi,

You can try with icl compiler in windows.

ICC is for Linux, and ICL is for Windows. You can get these Intel classic C/C++ Compilers from Intel HPC Toolkit.

Please refer to the below links for more details.

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/documentation/cpp-compiler-developer-guide-and-reference/top/compiler-setup/use-the-command-line/invoke-the-compiler.html

Please refer to the HPC Toolkit Download link.

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/oneapi/hpc-toolkit.html#gs.hg7ncv

In order to get the setvars.bat file, please try to re-install the Intel OneAPI Base toolkit and Intel OneAPI HPC toolkit.
