Intel 2020 Update 4, vcpkg, and static MKL solution conflict

[mariopsr-inc_com]

Hello, I have 2 different Visual Studio 2019 c++ solutions:
- Solution A is a .dll and compiles the MKL statically;
- Solution B is a .lib and compiles the MKL statically.

After I installed vcpkg (because I needed the MongoDB and AWS libraries for other solutions) and updated the intel compiler to 2020 update 4, Solution A still works, but Solution B stopped working:

...\lib\eigen\Eigen/src/Core/util/MKL_support.h(57): error : cannot open source file "mkl.h"

I already ran .\mklvars.bat intel64 and tried to run vcpkg.exe install intel-mkl:x64-windows-static, but it didn't work.

D:\vcpkg> .\vcpkg.exe install intel-mkl:x64-windows-static

Does anyone know what it can be?

If I remove the mkl include, it still gives an error related to ipo x vcpkg:

and finally, when I remove vcpkg from the solution, I still get an error:

Hi,

I'm investigating your issue and will get back to you soon with the updates.

Thanks,

Rahul

The last line: "error #11023: Not all components required for linking are present on command line" shows that not you need to add mkl's directory to your systems paths
