xilib issue with Intel C++ XE

[jwitmann]

I have enabled -qipo for compiling my entire project and at the time of creating the library here is what i get:

LIB : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file '-OUT:lib\\ecc_private.lib'

As you can see the command line has some extra garbage in front.

The exact version is as follow:

Intel Compiler linker driver for applications running on IA-32, Version 12.0.2.154 Build 20110112

Also, this problem doesn't exists with ICL v11.0.

I think there is problem in the command line. I can run xilink without any issue.

c:\>xilink /OUT:Intel12BugPlugin.dll /DLL "kernel32.lib" "user32.lib" "gdi32.lib" "winspool.lib" "comdlg32.lib" "advapi32.lib" "shell32.lib" "ole32.lib" "oleaut32.lib" "uuid.lib" "odbc32.lib" "odbccp32.lib" Plugin.obj

Well, the problem is with XILIB not xilink, and I was creating a LIB not a DLL, your test hardly compares :).

Also, a command line issue would be doubtfull... the same work with v11.0 without any problem or changes.

I tried xilib. It seems to work.

c:\>xilib -lib /OUT:plugin.lib Plugin.obj Caller.obj

This is rather interresting - I changed the dev env from my WDK to VS2010 command line, and now it works. Tried my VS2008 works as well. Which lead me to change the default LINK version invoked (I have too many DDK/SDK), and starting with v8.00 it works fine.

Sorry for the inconvenience, I guess it was a config issue of some sort (weird).

Thanks,
Jerome
