identifier "__builtin_nanf" is undefined

[Jurczak__Paul]

I installed evaluation version of Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2016 Cluster Edition Update 1 on Windows 10 with Visual Studio 2015 Update 1 Community Edition. I'm getting compilation errors on Microsoft library files:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\VC\include\limits(1120): error : identifier "__builtin_nanf" is undefined

I tried /Qstd=c++11 and /Qstd=c++14 compiler options to no effect.

Nevermind, I just found this report: https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/limits1120-error-identifier-builtin-nanf-is-undefined. I will test if it works.

Yes, it does work. Blame Bing for this unnecessary post, Google finds the solution near the top of the page.

The compatibility issue with Visual Studio 2015 update 1 is now resolved in Intel C++ compiler 16.0 update 2, which is available now from the Intel Registration Center.

Yes, it works for my case.
