Including Header Files

Intel IPP functions and types are defined in several header files that are organized by the function domains and groups. They are located in the include directory. For example, the ippac.h file contains declarations for all primitives for audio processing and audio coding.

The file ipp.h includes Intel IPP header files with the exception of cryptography and generated functions.

If you do not use cryptography and generated functions, use only ipp.h in your application for forward compatibility.

If you want to use cryptography and generated functions, you must directly include their header files ipcp.h and ippgen.h in your application.
