I cannot find compilervars.sh after installing Intel Compiler

Question

I have installed intel compiler on my Ubuntu 18.04 machine through the following link: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/articles/tool/oneapi-standalone-components.html#dpcpp-cpp

I specifically installed Intel® DPC++/C++ Compiler for Linux.

I am trying to run some benchmarks and they require to source the path <icc_installdir>/bin/compilervars.sh but I can not find this file. The installation says that Intel compiler was installed in /opt/intel/oneapi but I looked up this directory and there is no bin folder or compilervars.sh. Does anyone know how can I install this file?

Answer 1

Could you please try using the below command to initialize/source the Intel® DPC++/C++ Compiler for Linux?

source /opt/intel/oneapi/compiler/latest/env/vars.sh 

And also, to confirm whether it is initialized you can check the version of DPCPP compiler by using the below command.

dpcpp --version
