Set the Environment Variables and Launch the Visual Studio Code

Perform these steps to set the environment variables:
  1. Open a terminal session.
  2. Locate the setvars.sh script. The location depends of your oneAPI installation, and it will be one of the following:
    • If you installed as root or sudo, then find the script in the root directory of your oneAPI installation, which is typically /opt/intel/oneapi.
    • If you did not install as sudo or root, then find the script in the ~/intel/oneapi/ directory.
    • If you customized the installation folder, then find the script in your custom installation folder.
  3. Run the setvars.sh script from the command line using the following command: 
    source <oneapi_install_path>/setvars.sh

    For more information, refer to Set Environment Variables for CLI Development.

  4. In the same terminal session, launch VS Code by running the following command: 
    code
    NOTE:

    The benefit of sourcing the oneAPI setvars.sh script before launching VS Code is that all terminal sessions and child processes of VS Code includes the oneAPI development environment setup.
