Title: Errata Reference Number DPD200139120

Problem: Applications built with the Intel C++ and Fortran Compilers Professional Edition, version 11.1, or Intel Parallel Composer may hang or encounter a segmentation-fault when run on Microsoft* Windows 7* or Windows Server 2008* R2. Also, a similar issue may occur during installation of these compiler versions on these operating system versions.

Version:

  • Intel C++ & Fortran Compilers for Windows* 11.1 initial release and update 1 release:
    • IntelC++ & Fortran Compiler for Windows* 11.1.035
    • Intel C++ & Fortran Compiler for Windows* 11.1.038
  • Intel Parallel Studio
  • Intel Parallel Composer initial release, and update 1 release
Previous versions of the Intel Compilers (version 11.0 or earlier) do not have this issue. Please refer to the corresponding Release Notes for additional information on minimum system requirements for which operating systems are supported by that product version.

For applications built with the Intel Compilers version 11.1, the problem is contained within the Intel libraries libirc.lib, libircmt.lib.

Resolution:

For the Intel Compiler Professional Editions 11.1, this issue is resolved in update release 11.1.048 available on Intel Registration Center. Update 3 (11.1.051 is now current)

For Intel Parallel Composer, this issue is resolved in the update 2 release, available at the Intel Registration Center.

Intel is still validating these configurations and will update the Systems Requirements when validation is complete.

Dear Steve,

I just received an announcement about updating to IVF 11.1 Version 3 (Eng/Jap). I am using IVF11.1.048 at the moment. Is version 3 really an update for 11.1.048? Or could I ignore it?

Sincerely,

Niels H. Veldhuijzen

Update 3 is an update to 11.1.048 (Update 2 Revised). In general, I do recommend installing it.
