What's New in Intel® MKL 11.2 Update 4 : Release Notes

Hi Gennady,

        Thank you for the MKL 11.2 update, I am using it, but meet an issue, I tried many suggestions from posts, but none of them worked, so ask for help here.

        Below is the issue I meet.  I'm trying to use MKL Vector Mathematical Functions like vcMulByConj etc as below as an example(did not do input buffer initialization here， just an example).

void mklFuncTest()
{

 MKL_Complex8 inputPtr1[100];
 MKL_Complex8 inputPtr2[100];
 MKL_Complex8 outputPtr[100];
 MKL_INT numData = 100;
 //call mkl function
 vcMulByConj(numData, inputPtr1, inputPtr2, outputPtr);

    return;
}

      When I run the code, for win32 platform, it builds and runs both fine, but for x64 platform, when it goes to vcMulByConj, it fly, by going to dissembly, I see it fly when running below code

000000013FB74A6F  call        mkl_vml_serv_load_vml_dll (013FB761F0h)

     It looks to me that it could not run well with lib/dll 'mkl_vml_serv_load_vml_dll' on x64 platform.  Building is ok, looks that lib/dll is there.

    And I see, some of other MKL functions can run well like FFT(DftiComputeForward) etc on x64 application.

      I am using below version of tools:

        parallel_studio_xe_2015

        w_mkl_11.2.1.148

        w_ipp_8.2.1.148

        Visual Studio professional version 2013

    Per my understanding,  I used automatical link to MKL via property->Intel Performance Library->use intel MKL->Parallel, in  property->Linker->Advanced->Target Machine, I set to MachineX64 (/MACHINE:X64).  For Linker->Input->Additional Dependance, I keep it unchanged.

     My PC info is as below:

         Processor: Intel core i5-3320M CPU

         System Type: 64-bit Operation system
