Problem :
No selection of "Use Intel C++" on the project context menu "Intel C++ Composer XE 2011" even the installation is successful.
Environment : Any Windows x64 OS
Root Cause :
Many people have been confused by the smaller package "Product for 64-bit(x64) development" with download file name "w_ccompxe_intel64_2011.8.278.exe". One important note is that this 64-bit package contains the "Intel(R) C++ Compiler XE for applications running on Intel-64" and the libraries.
On any Windows x64 system it can be used for developing either IA-32 or Intel-64 applications.
When you create a new project with Visual Studio 2005, 2008 or 2010, the default configuration is "win32". So if you want to use Intel C++ Compiler to build it, you need to use the "Intel C++ Compiler XE for applications running on IA-32". And this compiler is not packaged in the package "Product for 64-bit(x64) development".
Resolution :
The solution is simple. Download and install one of the following packages:
1. the other 32-bit package "Product for 32-bit development"
2. the full product package "Product for 32-bit/64-bit (x64) development"
