• Caroline D (Intel) May 26, 2009 8:47 AM PDT    Intel® Parallel Advisor Lite Welcome to the Intel® Parallel Advisor Lite discussion thread!  We have started this thread to help us communicate with you about this new parallel programming technology developed by Intel’s software groups. Intel® Parallel Advisor Lite is a technology preview that accelerates parallel application design by providing unique insight into how parallelism will benefit your application. Parallel Advisor Lite is an add-on to the Intel® Parallel Studio suite of development tools for C/C++ developers using Microsoft Visual Studio*. We are interested in your feedback. Please take a moment to download, install, and let us know what you think.   How does this tool and its methodology compare with other techniques you have used? What features of Intel® Parallel Advisor Lite did you like? What did you find difficult to use or to understand? What is the biggest obstacle that has prevented you from implementing multi-core support in your application? Does Parallel Advisor Lite address this obstacle? Did Parallel Advisor Lite expose something unexpected in your program, such as a different location to parallelize? Or a data observation?  What information did Parallel Advisor Lite provide that helped you the most? gkotecha August 7, 2009 4:19 PM PDT Rate   #1 Re: Intel® Parallel Advisor Lite Hi, I was trying to use Advisor on one application which was using std::max function. After including annotate.h in the target file compiler gave error on the std::max function. Without this header file it compiles fine. Following is a test case: #include <iostream> #include <annotate.h> //after commenting this it compiles fine int main() { int a=15; int b=18; int c=std::max(a,b); } Are you aware of this issue? how should i fix this?

Hi!   Yes, we know - this is an unfortunate side effect of our combining what would typically be found in a pair of files (annotate.h and annotate.cpp), into the single file: annotate.h. THEN having annotate.h include windows.h. Generally, you can work around these compilation errors caused by annotate.h including windows.h by inserting                  #define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN before the                  #include "annotate.h" In your case, you are may also need to specify                  #define NOMINMAX Very annoying. We are looking at alternatives – suggestions are welcome! Regards, -Caroline
