Can I redistribute ifconsol.lib?

[Mark_L_7]

I am building a Fortran static library to be used in a C/C++ DLL.  The DLL requires 6 Intel libraries. 5 of the 6 libraries are listed in fredist.txt, but not ifconsol.lib. 

Is this an oversight?

If it is not redistributable, can build the library without it?

TIA,

Mark

Interesting question. Let me research it and get back to you. I don't know why it's missing. Does your library do any I/O?

[Steven_L_Intel1]

There are a bunch of other libraries missing, some of which would be necessary, such as ifmodintr.lib. Very puzzling. The person who could best answer this is out until Monday but I will get you an answer as soon as I can. It is probably an oversight but I am not sure.

[Mark_L_7]

Yes, some of the libraries will do I/O.

We've concluded that this was indeed an oversight - ifconsol.lib, ifauto.lib, ifcom.lib, ifmodintr.lib and ifwin.lib (there may be others - we will check) are allowed to be redistributed according to the terms of the End User License Agreement.

Great.  Thank you for your very quick response!

Following up on this post, I'm looking at the fredist.txt file for Composer XE 2013 SP1 (version 14.0.3). It lists many of the static libraries as redistributable that were not mentioned in earlier versions. However, ifconsol.lib, ifauto.lib, ifcom.lib, ifmodintr.lib and ifwin.lib are not listed. Is it still OK to redistribute them with our compiled static library?

Thanks,

Yes, it is. I thought we had fixed this problem, but apparently not. I'll try again.

Thanks! We appreciate it.
