Supported Visual Studio and Intel® Compiler Versions

 

Supported Visual Studio Versions

RTX64 3.7 supports the following versions of Microsoft Visual Studio:

IMPORTANT!  

The RTX64 SDK requires the following Visual Studio 2019 workload:

  • Desktop development with C++

If this workload is not currently installed for Visual Studio 2019, you must manually install it using the appropriate Visual Studio installer file (vs_<edition>.exe). For example, vs_professional.exe. To do this, follow the steps below:

  1. Browse for and open the Visual Studio 2019 installer file (vs_<edition>.exe).
  2. Under Workloads / Windows, select Desktop development with C++.
  3. Under Summary, make sure that the optional feature of this workload MFC and ATL support (x86 and x64) is selected.

NOTE: This ensures that all RTX64 samples can be built out-of-the-box.

  1. Click Install.
  2. After the new workload is installed, click Launch.

NOTE: If the above workload is not installed, projects and samples created with the RTX64 application templates will not build.

NOTE: The RTX64 application templates require the Windows 10.0 SDK, which is not included in the Visual Studio 2019 installation by default. You must manually select the Windows 10.0 SDK option during installation of Visual Studio 2019.

IMPORTANT!  

The RTX64 SDK requires the following Visual Studio 2017 workload:

If this workload is not currently installed for Visual Studio 2017, you must manually install it using the appropriate Visual Studio installer file (vs_<edition>.exe). For example, vs_professional.exe. To do this, follow the steps below:

  1. Browse for and open the Visual Studio 2017 installer file (vs_<edition>.exe).
  2. Under Workloads / Windows, select Desktop development with C++.
  3. Under Summary, make sure that the optional feature of this workload MFC and ATL support (x86 and x64) is selected.

NOTE: This ensures that all RTX64 samples can be built out-of-the-box.

  1. Click Install.
  2. After the new workload is installed, click Launch.

NOTE: If the above workload is not installed, projects and samples created with the RTX64 application templates will not build.

 

NOTE: The RTX64 application templates require the Windows 8.1 SDK, which is not included in the Visual Studio 2017 installation by default. You must manually select the Windows 8.1 SDK option during installation of Visual Studio 2017.

NOTE: Visual Studio 2013 support has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

NOTE: Visual Studio 2012 support has been deprecated and will be removed in a future release.

See the RTX64 Operating System and Visual Studio Compatibility Matrix for a detailed listing of Visual Studio support for each RTX64 version.

NOTE: We recommend that you always upgrade to the latest Visual Studio update.

NOTE: Unless otherwise noted, Microsoft Visual Studio refers to Visual Studio 2015.

IMPORTANT!  

The path structure to the RTX64 libraries is RTX64-version-specific:

Where <MAJORVERSION> is the major version of the RTX64 product. For example, for RTX64 3.0 - version 3.0 of the RTX64 product - the path is:

$(RTX64SDKDIR3)lib\$(Rtx64Platform)

Using the Convert feature of Visual Studio to convert RTX64 projects that were created with older versions of Visual Studio can result in mismatched RTX64 compiler settings. You will not be able to debug such applications. Therefore, it is recommended that the Convert option in Visual Studio not be used to convert RTX64 projects.

Supported Intel Compiler Versions

The following Intel Compiler versions have been tested and are supported by RTX64:
