Setting Environment Variables

When the installation of Intel IPP is complete, set the environment variables in the command shell using one of the script files in the env subdirectory of the Intel IPP installation directory:

On Windows* OS:

vars.bat for the IA-32 and Intel® 64 architectures.

On Linux* OS:

vars.sh for the IA-32 and Intel® 64 architectures.

When using the vars script, you need to specify the architecture as a parameter. For example:

  • vars.bat ia32

    sets the environment for Intel IPP to use the IA-32 architecture on Windows* OS.

  • . vars.sh intel64

    sets the environment for Intel IPP to use the Intel® 64 architecture on Linux* OS.

Alternatively, you can use the oneapi-vars script in the Unified Directory Layout. To learn more, see Finding Intel® IPP on Your System .

The scripts set the following environment variables:
