Converting from MSVC to DPC++ 2023.1

[Daniel_D]

Hi,

I try to convert my existing application to DPC++ 2023.1. I switch the toolset in the project properties of vs2022 and added the line:

#include <sycl/sycl.hpp>

to allow some sycl function calls in the future. The I compile and line - without any issue - except that it took much longer than MS v143.

But as soon as i try to debug the console app i got the message:

I tries to avoid this by copying the missing file from the intel oneapi folder into my app folder and the next dll was missing. Since I cannot belief that this is the way to go i guess I'm doing something wrong here.

Can someone shed some light on this and let me know how DPC++ is supposed to be used in the VS2022 IDE?

Thanks,

Daniel

Rebooting fixes this problem (sometimes) - very strange. Now I have the problem again. It seems to be fixed after reboot, but after a second report the problem reappeared. 

copied the sycl6d.dll into C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI\compiler\latest\windows\redist\intel64_win\compiler fixes the problem that the app cannot run. unfortunately it seem not to be the correct solution sine non of the sycl functions returns a useful result.

creating/compiling the DPC++ console sample that s installed into the VS project templates works without any issues. The problem seems to be the converted MSVC solution.

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Intel Communities.

Could you please try adding the following paths under the Path variable in Environment Variables and let us know the results?

C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI\compiler\2023.1.0\windows\bin

C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\intel\Shared Libraries

If the issue persists, please provide the following details so we can investigate this issue from our end.

1. Visual Studio version(sub-version also)

2. Source code and detailed steps you have followed

Thanks and Regards,

The problem happens if you have a solution that contains some projects. If you set the startup project to a non-DPC++ project - that still uses a DPC++ project (maybe load a shared lib) the sycl6d.dll is not found. Setting the startup project to a project that is build with DPC++ all is fine.
