Linking with MIGW g++

[Raul-Ramirez-Velarde]

I am using MingW 8.1.0 g++ to compile a program and link MKL libraries. My platform is Windows 10 with INTEL MKL 2020.0

Using the linker advisor I use the following Makefile:

CXX=g++
CXXFLAGS=-O4 -march=native -fopenmp-simd -fopenmp -fopt-info-vec=report.rpt -lmkl_intel_lp64 -lmkl_core -lmkl_sequential -L/C/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)\/IntelSWTools/compilers_and_libraries_2020.4.311/windows/mkl/lib/intel64_win -lm -Wl,--no-as-needed -I/C/Program\ Files\ \(x86\)\/IntelSWTools/compilers_and_libraries_2020.4.311/windows/mkl/include -std=c++11

default : app.exe

worker.o : worker.cc
${CXX} -c ${CXXFLAGS} -o "$@" "$<"

app.exe : main.cc worker.o
${CXX} ${CXXFLAGS} -o "$@" "$<" worker.o

clean :
rm app.exe worker.o *.optrpt

And get the following result:

$ mingw32-make -B
g++ -c -O4 -march=skylake -fopenmp-simd -fopenmp -fopt-info-vec=report.rpt -lmkl

What library am I missing? INTEL documentation states that both vdRngUniform and vslNewStream are MKL libraries.

Thank you for your help.

yes, vdRngUniform and vslNewStream are from MKL libraries and yes dynamically linking against these shared libs -lmkl_intel_lp64 -lmkl_core -lmkl_sequential is the correct way to link, but I am not sure how it could be linked under the MING g++ environment. You may try to check the build on any other Linus OS-based systems and apply the MKL Linkier Adviser or Dev Guide recommendations.
