Cannot link to IPP framework in Mac OS X

Hello,

I am trying to build a test application to try out IPP, but it seems like the Intel_IPP file in the Intel_IPP.framework framework is invalid, and only contains a single line of ASCII text...

[bash]mac:~/programming/cpp/icc_test$ icpc -framework Intel_IPP main.cpp -o icc_test
ld: warning: in /Library/Frameworks//Intel_IPP.framework/Intel_IPP, file was built for unsupported file format which is not the architecture being linked (x86_64)

mac:~/programming/cpp/icc_test$ file /Library/Frameworks/Intel_IPP.framework/Intel_IPP
/Library/Frameworks/Intel_IPP.framework/Intel_IPP: symbolic link to `Versions/Current/Intel_IPP'

mac:~/programming/cpp/icc_test$ file /Library/Frameworks/Intel_IPP.framework/Versions/Current/Intel_IPP
/Library/Frameworks/Intel_IPP.framework/Versions/Current/Intel_IPP: ASCII text

mac:~/programming/cpp/icc_test$ cat /Library/Frameworks/Intel_IPP.framework/Versions/Current/Intel_IPP
../../build/osx_fw_full/build/Release/Intel_IPP.framework/Versions/Current/Intel_IPP
[/bash]

I have version 5.3.4.075 of IPP installed.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Please take a look at " Building Intel IPP for Mac OS" http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-integrated-performance-primitives-for-mac-os-how-to-link-to-the-intel-ipp-for-mac-os-x-libraries-in-application/ to see if it can help.

By the way, are you aware the latest IPP version 6.1 update 4 available via Intel Compiler Prov11.1for Mac OS? http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/which-version-of-ipp--mkl--tbb-is-installed-with-intel-compiler-professional-edition/ ?

Thanks,
Ying
