Setting Environment Variables
When the installation of Intel IPP Cryptography is complete, set the environment variables in the command shell using one of the script files in the
bin
subdirectory of the Intel IPP Cryptography installation directory:
On Windows* OS:
- vars.bat
- for the IA-32 and Intel® 64 architectures.
On Linux* OS and macOS*:
Architecture
| Shell
| Script File
|
|---|---|---|
IA-32 and Intel® 64
| C
| vars.csh |
IA-32 and Intel® 64
| Bash
| vars.sh |
When using the
vars
script, you need to specify the architecture as a parameter. For example:
- vars.bat ia32sets the environment for Intel IPP Cryptography to use the IA-32 architecture on Windows* OS.
- . vars.sh intel64sets the environment for Intel IPP Cryptography to use the Intel® 64 architecture on Linux* OS and macOS*.
The scripts set the following environment variables:
Windows* OS
| Linux* OS
| macOS*
