Redistribute Libraries When Deploying Applications

When you deploy your application to systems that do not have a compiler installed, you need to redistribute certain Intel® libraries where your application is linked. You can do so in one of the following ways:

  • Statically link your application. An application built with statically linked libraries eliminates the need to distribute runtime libraries with the application executable. By linking the application to the static libraries, you are not dependent on the dynamic shared libraries.

  • Dynamically link your application. If you must build your application with dynamically linked (or shared) compiler libraries, you should address the following concerns:

    • You must build your application with shared or dynamic libraries that are redistributable.

    • Note the directory where the redistributables are installed and how the OS finds them.

    • You should determine which shared or dynamic libraries your application needs.

The information here is only introductory. The redistributable library installation packages are available at the following locations:
