Intel IPP 9.0 Legacy

[nguyen__do_minh_chan]

Hi all,

I need to use the old library IPP 9.0 Legacy. However, some header file such as ippbase.h and ipptypes.h are missing from the IPP 9.0 Leagcy package I donwloaded. Seems I need to install IPP 9.0 to get those header file, but the oldest version I can find from the registration center is IPP 2017 Initial Release.

Please advise where I can get the installation of IPP 9.0, or any way to solve the header file missing issue of IPP 9.0 Legacy Package.

Thanks a lot.

Hi, 

The IPP legacy package is released with IPP 9.0.  but it is expected to work with later IPP release as well. 
could you get the new versions of IPP?  and let us know if you get any problem. 

Thanks,
Chao

Hi Chao,

Thanks for your reply.

I try witth IPP 2017 Initial Release and I can compile with IPP legacy package. However, IPP 2018 Update 3 cannot be compiled with IPP leagcy package. I see there is already another post report this issue.

Thanks.

Hi 

Thanks for your reporting.  We will include the fix in the future release. 

Here is the workaroud;

It needs to add only 3 lines of code:

#if !defined( __STDCALL )

#define __STDCALL IPP_STDCALL

#endif

these lines can be added either before any "legacy" header declaration, or embedded into ippdefs90legacy.h after line #35:

#ifndef __IPPDEFS_90_LEGACY_H__

#define __IPPDEFS_90_LEGACY_H__

#include "ippbase.h"

#include "ipptypes.h"

#if !defined( __STDCALL )

#define __STDCALL IPP_STDCALL

#endif

or one more header file can be added - for naming "symmetry" something like ippdefs90legacy_redefs.h with the next content:
