Build and Run a Sample Project Using Eclipse*

Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit

Intel® oneAPI integrates with third-party IDEs on Linux* to provide a seamless GUI experience for software development.

NOTE:
If you are using Eclipse* with FPGA, see the FPGA Workflows on Third-Party IDEs for Intel® oneAPI Toolkits.

NOTE:

An internet connection is required to download the samples for oneAPI toolkits. For information on how to use this toolkit offline, see Developing with Offline Systems in the Troubleshooting section.

Create a New Project Using Eclipse*

You can access the entire suite using Eclipse* (see the release notes for minimum required version). Once oneAPI is installed, the tools are integrated into the menus.

To watch a video presentation of how to create a project, see Intel® oneAPI Eclipse Samples Plugin.

  1. Navigate to the Eclipse directory and source setvars.sh.

    For root or sudo installations:

    . /opt/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh

    For normal user installations:

    . ~/intel/oneapi/setvars.sh

    See here for more information on setvars.sh.
  2. Launch Eclipse from the folder where it was installed:
    ./eclipse
  3. In Eclipse, select your workspace and create a project with Intel > Browse Intel oneAPI Samples. The wizard selection screen appears.
    NOTE:
    If you do not see an Intel menu in Eclipse, install the oneAPI Eclipse plugins, then return to this page for instructions on how to Build and Run a sample.
  4. Enter a name for your project in the New Project Name field. Use the > arrow to select the Intel® oneAPI Base Toolkit.
  5. Select the Intel® oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler > CPU, GPU and FPGA group, then select Vector Add. Vector Add is a simple test application that will help verify that the tools are setup correctly and can access your system's GPU.
  6. The Vector Add sample opens in the C++ perspective and the sample will run. Check the Problems view at the bottom. If there are any errors, they will display in the Problems tab.

  7. To build a project, select Project > Build Project. When building, the Eclipse Console view (usually in the lower right) will show you a build log, along with any errors or warnings. In this example, no errors were found.
  8. To run the application, click Run > Run .
