aboutcustom dll

[anilch]

If I try to build a custom dll

an error comes i.e.

cl is not an recognized command

Ms environment is not setup

how cani remove this error

[Ying_S_Intel]

The custom dll tool included in the current version of IPP may only work with older version of Microsoft* Visual C++* 6.0 compiler and nmake utility.

We will improve the compatibility issue with the latest version of compiler in next version of IPP ( 5.0).

At this time, you may check the following sample code that includes mydll.h, mydll.cpp and customdynamcitest.cpp to see how to custom dll.

What options do i need to set when building these files?

Also, i don't have anything about Custom DLLs (neither a sample nor a tool) in my IPP installation. Is that because they are only available in the "full" version? (I am using an evaluation ATM.)

[Vladimir_Dudnik]

Hi,

You will not able to build custom DLL with evalauation version of IPP beacause evaluation version does include static libraries and custom DLL are built from them. For full version you should be able to find custom DLL example in folder ia32 oolscustomdll, where is root folder of your IPP installation.

Vladimir
