Hello. I am still evaluating ifort for Win. Durinkg linking the compiler reports that bufferoverflowu.lib is missing. I cannot find this library in any of the intel64 dirs. Any thoughts? Is this a system lib?

thanks. andrei

I haven't seen this problem in about 2 years. If you are using such an old version, look up advice on this forum about setting /link /nodefaultlib:bufferoverflowu.lib. If you really want a further explanation, please look at old posts on the subject.

Which Visual Studio version are you using and how are you compiling? bufferoverflowu was a VS2005 library that is not provided in more recent VS versions. Are you linking to an object or library provided by someone else?
