Using Custom Library Tool for Intel® Integrated Performance Primitives
With the Intel® Integrated Performance Primitives (Intel® IPP) Custom Library Tool, you can build your own dynamic library containing only the Intel IPP/Intel IPP Cryptography functionality that is necessary for your application.
The use of custom libraries built with the Custom Library Tool provides the following advantages:
- Package size. Your package may have much smaller size if linked with a custom library because standard dynamic libraries additionally contain all optimized versions of Intel IPP/Intel IPP Cryptography functions and a dispatcher. The following table compares the contents and size of packages for an end-user application linked with a custom dynamic library and an application linked with the standard Intel IPP dynamic libraries:Application linked with custom DLLApplication linked with Intel IPP dynamic librariesipp_test_app.exe(for Windows*) oripp_test_app(for Linux* OS and macOS*)ipp_custom_{dll|so}.{dll|so|dylib}ipp_test_app.exe(for Windows*) oripp_test_app(for Linux* OS and macOS*)ippi.{dll|so|dylib}ippig9.{dll|so|dylib}ippih9.{dll|so|dylib}ippip8.{dll|so|dylib}ippipx.{dll|so|dylib}ippis8.{dll|so|dylib}ippiw7.{dll|so|dylib}ipps.{dll|so|dylib}ippsg9.{dll|so|dylib}ippsh9.{dll|so|dylib}ippsp8.{dll|so|dylib}ippspx.{dll|so|dylib}ippss8.{dll|so|dylib}ippsw7.{dll|so|dylib}ippcore.{dll|so|dylib}Package size: 0.1 MbPackage size: 121.5 Mb
- Smooth transition to a higher version of Intel IPP/Intel IPP Cryptography. You can easily build the same custom dynamic library from a higher version of Intel IPP/Intel IPP Cryptography and substitute the libraries in your application without relinking.
The current Python* version of the Intel IPP Custom Library Tool supports the host-host configuration only, the host-target configuration is currently not supported.
