Use Intel® Libraries with Microsoft Visual Studio*

You can use the compiler with the following Intel® Libraries, which may be included as a part of the product:

• Intel® oneAPI Data Analytics Library (oneDAL)

  Note

  This library is only available in the x64 configuration.
• Intel® Integrated Performance Primitives (Intel® IPP)
• Intel® oneAPI Threading Building Blocks (oneTBB)
• Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL)

Use the property pages to specify Intel Libraries to use with the selected project configuration. The functionality supports Intel® C++ and Microsoft Visual C++* project types.

To specify Intel Libraries, select Project > Properties. In Configuration Properties, select Intel Libraries for oneAPI, then do the following:

1. To use oneDAL change the Use oneDAL settings as follows:

   Note

   This library is only available in the x64 configuration.
   • No: Disable Use of oneDAL.
   • Default Linking Method: Use parallel dynamic oneDAL libraries.
   • Multi-threaded Static Library: Use parallel static oneDAL libraries.
   • Single-threaded Static Library: Use sequential static oneDAL libraries.
   • Multi-threaded DLL: Use parallel dynamic oneDAL libraries.
   • Single-threaded DLL: Use sequential dynamic oneDAL libraries.
2. To use Intel® Integrated Performance Primitives, change the Use Intel® IPP settings as follows:
   • No: Disable use of Intel® IPP libraries.
   • Default Linking Method: Use dynamic Intel® IPP libraries.
   • Static Library: Use static Intel® IPP libraries.
   • Dynamic Library: Use dynamic Intel® IPP libraries.
3. To use oneTBB in your project, change the Use oneTBB settings as follows:
   • No: Disable use of oneTBB libraries.
   • Use oneTBB: Set to Yes to use oneTBB in the application.
   • Instrument for use with Analysis Tools: Set to Yes to analyze your release mode application (not required for debug mode).
4. To use oneMKL in your project, change the Use oneMKL property settings as follows:
   • No: Disable use of oneMKL libraries.
   • Parallel: Use parallel oneMKL libraries.
   • Sequential: Use sequential oneMKL libraries.
   • Cluster: Use cluster libraries.

Additional settings for use with the Microsoft Visual C++* Platform Toolset are available on the Intel Libraries for oneAPI category, found at Tools > Options.

Change the Selected Intel® Performance Libraries

If you have installed multiple versions of the Intel® Performance Libraries, you can specify which version to use with the Microsoft Visual C++* compiler. To do this:

1. Select Tools > Options.

2. In the left pane, select Intel Compilers and Libraries > Performance Libraries.

3. Select the desired library version from the drop-down boxes in the right pane.
