{{Warning|I do not endorse using the Intel Compiler or Math Kernel Library, I always endorse using completely free software solutions. I am simply evaluating how compatible Octave is with the Intel development tools and putting some notes here.}}

To compile Octave with the Intel compiler (tested with version 12.0.0.084) pass the following variables to configure:

The {{Codeline|-diag-error}} options tell the compiler to treat unknown options as errors instead of warnings, this is to allow the checks in the configure script for supported options to work.
The {{Codeline|-diag-error 10006,10155,10156,10157,10158}} options tell the compiler to treat unknown command-line options as errors instead of warnings. This allows the configure script to correctly detect which options are recognized by the compiler.
 
The {{Codeline|-diag-disable 654,1125}} setting for C++ turns off warnings about shadowing member functions. I may turn these back on at some point to compile a list of these warnings, but ignore for now.
 
=== Intel Math Kernel Library ===


The {{Codeline|-diag-disable 654,1125}} for C++ turns off warnings about shadowing member functions. I may turn these back on at some point to compile a list of these warnings, but ignore for now.
The IMKL provides a library interface that includes BLAS, LAPACK, and FFTW functions, so it should be possible to use it in place of all three of those libraries.
