Compile error (avx512 related) on windows

[fairchilddonior]

Hi,

I am trying to build netgen (v6.2.2101) on windows. First I set up the directories as below and run the cmake command

cmake "../src" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX="../install" -G "Visual Studio 15 Win64"

The cmake configuring/generating process is OK.

However, when I open the SUPERBUILD.sln in VS 2017 Community and build the "INSTALL" project, I see a bunch of errors.

Does anyone know how to fix that?

Thanks!

Hi,

It seems, Netgen is currently not building for AVX512-CPUs on Windows. I will have a look at the errors.

In the meantime, you can disable the vectorization by configuring cmake with cmake -DUSE_NATIVE_ARCH=OFF ...

Thanks! Those errors are gone now.

But there are still a few strange errors.

I have the same mistake, how do you solve it? *.rc
