What happened to the custom library tool?

[Mikhail_K_]

It has been replaced by some python scripts and there is no way to start the gui app...

What am I missing?

Windows version 2019, Update 4

Run "python3 main.py"

This will start a GUI, unless you use the -c command line flag. You need to use Python version 3, which may be called simply python on your system, depending on how Python was installed. You also may need to install some extra Python packages, it will tell you if they are missing.

Kind of figured it out, but can't get it to work 100%:

1. I'm trying to isolate signal processing functions into a dll. In the old tool you could mark all functions within a category and move them over like so:

The python gui does not allow that. Need to move one line at a time.

2. The old version had a set of functions for Core Domain (shown in the picture above). The new one doesn't. Why? 

3. So, ended up trying to do it from console:

python main.py -c -mt -ff “C:\somedir\functions.txt” -n ipps -cnl "C:\Program Files (x86)\IntelSWTools\compilers_and_libraries_2019.4.245" -p "C:\somedir\" -ia32 -intel64 -ts Windows

Intel IPP Custom Library Tool console version is on...

The installer does not set IPPROOT?

Edit. It works if I use one of the two flags at a time (-ia32 -intel64). Initially I followed this example: https://software.intel.com/en-us/ipp-dev-guide-using-console-version-of-custom-library-tool

<< installer doesn't set IPPROOT, Please use the command shell ../bin/ippvars.bat to set this env. variable.

<< It work for: Windows 10, python 3.7, IPP 2019 update4.
Can you provide the error message and specify what version of python are you using?

It works fine, it's just the first time I followed your example literaly:

https://software.intel.com/en-us/ipp-dev-guide-using-console-version-of-custom-library-tool

You cannot use both -ia32 -intel64 at the same time.
