OpenCL SDK setup fails - Universal C Runtime not identified

[omair_r_]

Hi,

I'm trying to install intel_sdk_for_opencl_setup_6.1.0.1600.exe on Windows 7 64 bit.

However the setup says the https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2999226 is not installed.

The universal C runtime is already installed, but Intel SDK somehow fails to identify it, and unable to proceed with the setup.

Can anyone please provide some urgent assistance?.

The log files for the installation are attached!.

Best,

Mork.

Hi OmairR,

On the forums, we can't dig into issues on operating systems that are no longer supported... but this is a good place to ask... Another user may have observed a work around.

To build: With OpenCL applications the common requirement is the opencl headers as well as the OpenCL ICD interrorgator library (i.e. OpenCL.dll OpenCL.lib stublib).  These libraries may be obtainable from other sources, as they are intended to be abstracted from vendor implementations. The headers are for sure on github... See ICD references from khronos for more information  about the runtime.

To deploy: if a developer is looking for the OpenCL CPU implementation that is provided from the SDK, consider using the CPU implementations listed here as an alternative (v16.1.2):
