BASH shell:
$ . <install-dir>/bin/compilervars.shC shell:
$ source <install-dir>/bin/compilervars.csh
where <install-dir> is the top-level installation directory.
Using the Command Line
To invoke the compiler from the command line, use a command similar to the following:
For C source files:
icc my_source_file.cFor C++ source files:
icpc my_source_file.cpp
Following successful compilation, the compiler creates an executable file in the current directory.
