Commented: Walter Roberson on 24 May 2016

So i am trying to use the intel c++ composer XE 2011 (update 13) together SDK 7.1 to compile matlab mex functions. According to

http://www.mathworks.se/support/compilers/R2013a/index.html?sec=win64#n1

this should be supported.

I installed SDK 7.1 (as i was currently using VS 2008 standard e.d which is not supported together with intel XE). After installing, the SDK 7.1 appeared on the list of compilers in

mex -setup
Select a compiler: 
[1] Microsoft Software Development Kit (SDK) 7.1 in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0 
[2] Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1 in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0 
[0] None

Although i was also expecting

Microsoft Software Development Kit (SDK) 7.1 (with intel c++..., ) <--- something like this

or

Intel c++ ... (with SDK).

What am i missing? Do i perhaps need both SDK 7.1 AND a professional edition of either VS2010 or 2008 ?

what happens when you type in 'n' when 'mex -setup' asks to locate installed compilers? It should list out all compilers that are "supported" not necessarily "installed" on your system. There in the list, check if you can select 'Intel C++ .. (with SDK)' option number.

Ahhh thank you very much! This seems to have solved it. I selected the correct combination and got a warning that the destination folder did not exist or was not configured correctly. Then all i had to do was enter the correct folder for the compiler (just had to add SP1 at the end of the destination), and now it seems to work

mex.getCompilerConfigurations
ans = 
   CompilerConfiguration with properties:
               Name: 'Intel C++'
       Manufacturer: 'Intel'
           Language: 'C++'
            Version: '13.0'
           Location: 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Composer XE 2013 SP1'
            Details: [1x1 mex.CompilerConfigurationDetails]
         LinkerName: 'Microsoft Visual Studio 2012'
      LinkerVersion: '11.0'

It is possible that the Intel Composer settings are embedded in the SDK installation. Are you able to successfully compile a small program once you choose SDK?

Well, yes it is able to compile a small program that runs, but i am not sure how to test if the intel instructions are used. I mean SDK 7.1 would succesfully compile a C program using only VS 10.0.

Also wouldnt it be expected that one should be able to choose to use either SDK 7.1 or the intel compiler with SDK 7.1 ?
