Intel System Studio 2019 Get Started Guide

Get Started with Application Development Using Intel® System Studio 2019 for Windows* OS Host and Windows OS Target

Create Your First Project

This guide introduces you to application development with Intel® System Studio. Follow the instructions in the next section to build a sample Hello World application.

Because you selected the Windows* host for a Windows target version of Intel System Studio 2019, you can use Microsoft Visual Studio* as your development environment. See the System Requirements for a list of compatible Microsoft Visual Studio packages.

Note

You do not have access to the Intel System Studio Eclipse*-based IDE. That IDE comes with the Windows host for Linux* target version of Intel System Studio 2019. For details visit the product page on the Intel Developer Zone .

Build a Hello World Application

Follow these steps to build and run a sample Hello World application on a local Windows* system.

Step 1: Install and open the Hello World sample

  1. Copy the contents of <install_dir>\samples_2019\hello_world\ directory to a writable directory on your system.

    Note that the default <install_dir> for the samples is [Program Files (x86)]\IntelSWTools\.

  2. From the Visual Studio* menu, select File > Open > Project/Solution.

    The Open Project dialog box opens.

  3. In the Open Project dialog box, browse to the location where you extracted the hello_world sample files and select the hello_world.sln file.

    The solution is added to Visual Studio and shows up in the Solution Explorer. It automatically inherits Visual Studio settings and uses the currently opened project as a target project.

Step 2: Build the target in Release mode

  1. From the Visual Studio* menu, select Project > Intel Compiler > Use Intel C++.

  2. Go to the Build > Configuration Manager dialog box and select the Release mode for your project.

  3. Click Close.

  4. From the Visual Studio menu, select Build > Build hello_world.

    The hello_world.exe application is built.

Step 3: Run the target

From the Visual Studio menu, select Debug > Start Debugging.
