Libraries for Static Linking

To use the static linking libraries, you need to link to all required domain libraries libipp*_l.a,core library libippcore_l.a , and libraries on which domain libraries depend (see next section). The * denotes the appropriate function domain.

If you want to use the Intel IPP functions threaded with the OpenMP*, you need to link to the threaded versions of the libraries libipp*_t.a, libippcore_t.a, and ibiomp.a.

All domain-specific and core libraries are located in the /ipp/lib/<arch> directory.

For example, your application uses three Intel IPP functions ippiCopy_8u_C1R, ippiCanny_16s8u_C1R, and ippmMul_mc_32f. These three functions belong to the image processing, computer vision, and small matrix operations domains respectively. All these domain libraries depend on signal processing library.

Note iconNote

The order in which libraries are linked must correspond to the library dependencies by domain (see the next section).

To include these functions into your application, link to the following libraries:

       libippcv_l.a

       libippm_l.a

       libippi_l.a

       libipps_l.a

       libippcore_l.a

or if you want to use the threaded functions:

       libippcv_t.a

       libippm_t.a

       libippi_t.a

       libipps_t.a

       libippcore_t.a

       libiomp.a

Optimization Notice

The Intel® Integrated Performance Primitives (Intel® IPP) library contains functions that are more highly optimized for Intel microprocessors than for other microprocessors. While the functions in the Intel® IPP library offer optimizations for both Intel and Intel-compatible microprocessors, depending on your code and other factors, you will likely get extra performance on Intel microprocessors.

While the paragraph above describes the basic optimization approach for the Intel® IPP library as a whole, the library may or may not be optimized to the same degree for non-Intel microprocessors for optimizations that are not unique to Intel microprocessors. These optimizations include Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (Intel® SSE2), Intel® Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (Intel® SSE3), and Supplemental Streaming SIMD Extensions 3 (Intel® SSSE3) instruction sets and other optimizations. Intel does not guarantee the availability, functionality, or effectiveness of any optimization on microprocessors not manufactured by Intel. Microprocessor-dependent optimizations in this product are intended for use with Intel microprocessors.

Intel recommends that you evaluate other library products to determine which best meets your requirements.
