detecting which processor-specific library is being used

[santoguya]

Hi,

I'm trying to run some IPP code on a Pentium 2 using static libs with dispatching. After runningippstaticinit(), is there a way to detect or return the exact library versioni'm using (px, a6, etc)?

Hello,

You may call ippGetCpuType() function which return code of processor being used by IPP or alternatively, you can call ippGetLibVersion() and find cpu-specific postfix in the name field.

On Intel PentiumIIthe latest version of IPP will use PX code. We stop support for this kind of processors several years ago. The last time PentiumII processor was supported was IPP 3.0 version,released inJanuary2003. It contained Pentium II specificlibraries with postfix M6.
