memset_s

I am trying to use memset_s.

I have version icpc version 16.0.3.210

The compiler says the symbol is undefined.

I have tried including strings.h and also defining __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__

Hi,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

We are able to reproduce the same error on our end. We are forwarding this thread to the concerned internal team.


Thanks & Regards

memcpy_s is only guaranteed to be available if __STDC_LIB_EXT1__ is defined by the implementation and if the user defines __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ to the integer constant 1 before including string.h. (https://en.cppreference.com/w/c/string/byte/memcpy)


$ icpc mem_s.cpp -c

$ cat mem_s.cpp

#define __STDC_WANT_LIB_EXT1__ 1

#include <stdio.h>

#include <string.h>

#include <stdlib.h>


int main(void)

{

  char temp_str[10];

  #ifdef __STDC_LIB_EXT1__

  memset_s(temp_str, 'H', sizeof(temp_str));

#endif

}

I have tried previously what you have. I am still having issues.

Do I need a certain version of gcc for this to work?

If so how do I point icpc to a different version of gcc?

I am using:

Intel icpc version 16.0.3.210

The version of gcc on the machine I compile with is 4.4.7

Thanks,
Tom

I don't have a system with gcc4.4. but it worked on gcc4.8

$ icpc mem_s.cpp -c -V

You can set -gcc-name=/gxx-name= to point to a location of gcc/g++
