Error : Failed to enable trusted storage check for licensing

Tue, 10 Nov 2009 16:38:05 -0800

Problem :
When using the compiler you see the following error message

"error #10310: Failed to enable trusted storage check for licensing: Warning" Enable Trusted Storage failed (flexnet error code 20). Trusted Storage based licence could "

Environment :
Intel(R) 64 , Windows* 7

Root Cause :
Service “FLEXnet Licensing Service 64” can not be installed by non-administrator users on Windows 7.

Workaround:

Run icl as administrator once.

Steps:
1. Go to start -> All Programs -> Intel(R) Software Development Tools -> Intel(R) C++ Compiler Professional 11.1.0xx > C++ Build Environment for application running on Intel(R) 64
2. run command:

runas /user:administrator "icl /v"

You will be prompted to input administrator’s password. This step will trigger icl to install the Windows service “FLEXnet Licensing Service 64”.

__m128 data type incompatible with Microsoft definition

Tue, 08 Sep 2009 10:49:51 -0700

The __m128 data type as defined in xmmintrin.h for use with the Streaming SIMD Extensions instructions intrinsics is defined as a union in Microsoft (MS) header, while it is supported as a struct in the Intel® Parallel Composer or Intel® C++ Compiler for Windows* (icl) resulting in incompatibility with MS.

Code containing MS definition when compiled with Composer or icl will result in compilation errors because, the __m128 data type is defined as either a four packed single-precision floating-point values or one scalar single-precision number. As a work-around, if you have code that uses MS definition of a union, then the file(s) containing such code will have to be compiled with MS compiler.

In the meantime, a feature request to support the union definition for compatibility with MS is in place, and this article will be updated as and when a release containing the support for MS compatibility is out in the very near future.

For any questions or further clarification on this incompatibility with MS, please feel free to post on any of the following forums:

compiler internal error 0_1279

Mon, 20 Jul 2009 19:50:24 -0700

Reference Number : DPD200008448, DPD200137998

Version : All the 10.x, 11.x compilers and the older versions.

Operating System : Linux, Windows

Problem Description :
    Test case 1: test.c
             int round(float in);
             int foo(float in)
             {
                  int res=round(in);
                  if(res !=0) res = 1;
                   return res;
              }

        Test case 2: test.c
              float memcpy(char*, char*, int);
              float res;
              void foo(char* in, char* out)
              {
                   res = memcpy(in, out, 100);
              }
     Test case 3: test.c
             double pow();
             void bar(double);
             void foo()
             {
                  int a=0;
                  int b[1]={255};
                  bar(pow(b[a],2));
             }
     compile the test case: icl test.c -c
The compiler will report the internal error 0_0, or the internal error 0_1279, or the internal error 0_1208 etc in difference cases.
This is the problem in all the cases where the compiler recognize something (defined by user differently than in compiler intrinsics table) being an intrinsic call and expand this call inline.
Resolution Status :
1. Change the function name to your own name different to the compiler intrinsic function. For example, change 'round' in case 1 to 'myround', change 'memcpy' in case 2 to 'mymemcpy', change 'pow' in case 3 to 'mypow'.
2. Include the compiler head files to use the intrinsic functions provided by compiler instead of to define your own. Be carefull to the compiler warnings for incompatible declarations during compilation stage.
