Using Property Pages

The Intel® C++ Compiler integration with Microsoft Visual Studio* includes support for Property Pages to manage both Intel-specific and general compiler options.

To set compiler options in Microsoft Visual Studio*:

  1. Right-click on a project or source file in the Solution Explorer view.
  2. Select Properties from the pop-up menu.
  3. In the Property Pages dialog box, expand the C/C++ section to view the categories of compiler options.
  4. Select a category, then change the compiler options on the corresponding Property Page in the right-hand pane. Some categories contain Intel-specific properties; these categories are marked with [Intel C++]. For example, there is a Code Generation and Code Generation [Intel C++] category. The latter contains properties specific to the Intel® C++ Compiler.
  5. Click OK to complete your selection.

The option you selected is used in the compilation the next time you build your project.
