Configuring a Visual Studio* Project

To configure a Visual Studio* project with Intel® MPI Library, do the following:
  1. In Visual Studio, create a console application project, or open an existing one.
  2. Open the project properties, go to
    Configuration Properties > Debugging
     and set the following parameters:
    Command:
    $(I_MPI_ONEAPI_ROOT)\bin\mpiexec.exe
    Command arguments:
    -n <
    processes-number
    > "$(TargetPath)"
    Environment:
    PATH=$(I_MPI_ONEAPI_ROOT)\bin\$(ConfigurationName);$(I_MPI_ONEAPI_ROOT)\libfabric\bin;$(PATH)
  3. In
    Configuration Properties > C/C++
     or
    Fortran
    , as appropriate, set the following parameter:
    Additional Include Directories:
    $(I_MPI_ONEAPI_ROOT)\include
  4. In
    Configuration Properties > Linker
    , set the following parameter:
    Additional Library Directories:
    $(I_MPI_ONEAPI_ROOT)\lib\$(ConfigurationName);$(I_MPI_ONEAPI_ROOT)\lib
  5. In
    Configuration Properties > Linker > Input
    , set the following parameters:
    • For Fortran, set Additional Dependencies:
      impi.lib
    • For C++, set Additional Dependencies:
      impi.lib
       and
      impicxx.lib
After completing these steps, you can build the solution and run the application. To run the application from Visual Studio, you can use the Ctrl + F5 key combination (Start Without Debugging). For other available options, see Running Applications.
