Intel® C++ Compiler for Windows*
The IDE integration does not work within Visual Studio 2005*

If you have Visual Studio 2005* or Visual Studio .NET 2003* installed and also installed the Intel® C++ Compiler for Windows* 10.x and the Integrations to Microsoft* Visual Studio*, you will see the Intel® C++ Compiler toolbar within the Visual Studio IDE and the "Intel® C++ Compiler Help" menu item under the "Help" menu.

If you do not see the Intel C++ Compiler toolbar or the "Intel C++ Compiler Help" menu item, it means the IDE integration module is not installed successfully.

We have seen cases where you have installed IBM* ClearCase* before installing the Intel® C++ Compiler for Windows* 10.x. In such case there is an environment variable "EnvSdk_RegKey" defined on your system that contains a value like "8.0,7.0" or "8.0,8.0exp".  So the installation of Intel® C++ Compiler IDE integration can not execute correctly.

The work around is very simple:

  • Uninstall the Intel® C++ Compiler IDE Integration module from "Add/Remove Programs"
  • Rename the environment variable "ENVSDK_REGKEY" to something else like "ENVSDK_REGKEY_SAVE"
  • Reinstall the Intel® C++ Compiler IDE Integration module
  • Rename the environment variable "ENVSDK_REGKEY_SAVE" back "ENVSDK_REGKEY"
This issue is being worked on.

This applies to:
Intel® C++ Compiler for Windows*
