Linker error Matlab Mex + IVF Composer 2011 + Microsoft Visual Studio Integratable Shell 2008

[SarahZ]

I just upgraded from a trial version of Intel Visual Fortran, with Microsoft visual studio 2010,

to a full version with the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Shell linker. I am using this for a

matlab mex function. According to the matlab site, this configuration is compatible with my matlab

version R2011b (I have the first IVF 2011 release, which has the 12.0 compiler.) However, since I

switched to the integratable shell version, I get the following linker error when I try to compile.

'link' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

C:\\PROGRA~1\\MATLAB\\R2011B\\BIN\\MEX.PL: Error: Link of 'FAST_SFunc.mexw32' failed.

Error using mex (line 206)

Unable to complete successfully.

Error in make_FAST_SFunc (line 65)

mex('-v' , ...

%verbose

At the time I did the upgrade, I fully uninstalled the previous version, as well as the microsoft visual studio 2010. I am sure that IVF is configured to run with the integratable shell.. and matlab is able to recognize this

compiler. It seems the .bat configuration file does not work out of the box. I think there may be some discrepancy in the path variables.. I have attatched the configuration .bat file from matlab, and the relevant

environment variables are shown below.

I am running on 32bit windows. I already tried creating the variable VSINSTALLDIR which points to the VSSHELL2008INSTALLDIR. Any help/feedback would be very appreciated! Has anyone been able to successfully use thisconfiguration in matlab r2011b? Does anyone have suggestions on modifying

the .bat? Thank you very much in advance!!

Problem fixed.. For future reference the intelf12msvs2008shellopts.bat needs VSINSTALLDIR modified to

SET VSINSTALLDIR=%VSSHELL2008INSTALLDIR%

Several other compiler flags needed to be modified in addition for my application.
