Intel C++ compiler with Visual Studio CMake project

[dkasianov]

Hi,

I have simple CMake project and trying to build it using Intel C++. It is build ok if I use from Intel One API Command Prompt without any issues, but I open this project in visual studio icx-cl is not found. It is explainable because it looks like OneAPI is not integrates compilers into Visual Studio Developer Command Line.

So the question is, does it supported CMake Project in Visual Studio or CMake is supported only from One API Command Prompt?

Thanks,

Daniil

Hi @dkasianov , can you be more specific about the error you saw ?  Did you see the error from Visual studio GUI or the command line prompt ?

[dkasianov]

It is just a cmake output.

1> [CMake] -- The C compiler identification is unknown
1> [CMake] -- The CXX compiler identification is unknown

1> [CMake] The CMAKE_C_COMPILER:
1> [CMake]
1> [CMake] icx-cl
1> [CMake]
1> [CMake] is not a full path and was not found in the PATH.

It is looks like Visual Studio does not setup environment and doesn't see compilers.

And FYI, if I choose Developer PowerShell in Tools->Command Line, intel's compilers are also not there. 

Thanks,

Hi @dkasianov, so you're trying to open a CMake project in Visual studio, do you mind sharing the CMakeLists.txt file or the steps to reproduce the issue ? 

In visual studio developer command line, you may need to execute the script, C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI\setvars.bat in order to see Intel compilers.

Hi,

Yes, to run for command line I need to run *.bat file, but I expected in visual studio it was by default. But is ok, looks like it is a feature.

My example is just simple hello world example. I use presets. I commented out all deps. So you should be able to build it using msvc or intel's (from command line). Try it out.

Thanks,

HI, 

I found solution this is covered in 

Automate the setvars.bat Script with Microsoft Visual Studio* (intel.com)

I found this article from by googling that, but it would be great to have it inside using Visual Studio

Thanks,
