Linking Your Microsoft* Visual Studio* Project with Intel® Integrated Performance Primitives Cryptography

To link your Microsoft* Visual Studio* IDE project with Intel® Integrated Performance Primitives Cryptography (Intel® IPP Cryptography), follow these steps:

Set the Path for the Intel IPP Cryptography header and library files in Microsoft* Visual Studio* IDE:
1. Right click your project, then select Properties > Configuration Properties > VC++ Directories.
2. Select the <Edit…> option in drop down list of Include Directories, click the New Line button to add a new line and select the include subdirectory of the <ipp cryptography directory> folder. For example, the default Intel IPP Cryptography header file directory is located at <ipp cryptography directory>\include.
3. Select the <Edit…> option in drop down list of Library Directories, click the New Line button to add a new line and select the lib subdirectory of the <ipp cryptography directory> folder. For example, in the Component Directory Layout, the default Intel IPP Cryptography directory is located at <ipp cryptography directory>\lib{<arch>}, where <arch> can be ia32 or intel64. In the Unified Directory Layout, the default 64-bit directory is <ipp cryptography directory>\lib\ and the default 32-bit directory is <ipp cryptography directory>\lib32\. For more information on the two directory layouts, see Finding Intel IPP Cryptography on Your System.
Link the Intel® IPP Cryptography library into your project:
1. Right click your project, then select Properties > Configuration Properties > Linker > Input.
2. Select the <Edit…> option in drop down list of Additional Dependencies and enter the filename of the Intel IPP Cryptography library you wish to use. For example, enter ippcp.lib for dynamic linking or ippcpmt.lib for static linking.
Optional: Add the Intel® IPP Cryptography dynamic library to your executable environment (for DLL) You can add the path to the Intel® IPP Cryptography dynamic-link library to your PATH environment variable permanently by following these steps:
1. Open the Start menu and click the Control Panel icon in the Windows System group.
2. Select Large icons in the View by: drop-down list, then find and click System.
3. Click Advanced system settings in the column on the left side of the window.
4. Select the Advanced tab and click the Environment Variables… button.
5. Select the Path variable in the list of user or system variables and click Edit….
6. Append the path to the contents of the Variable value field and click OK. Component Directory Layout path <ipp cryptography directory>\redist{<arch>}. Unified Directory Layout path for 64-bit: <ipp cryptography directory>\bin\, for 32-bit: <ipp cryptography directory>\bin32\
Alternatively, to launch the Microsoft* Visual Studio* IDE from a preconfigured command line environment:
1. Run {{vars.bat}} from the directory <ipp cryptography directory>\env\ in a command window.
2. Start <Microsoft Visual Studio>\IDE\devenv.exe in the same command window.
