Not a noob question at all. The Intel compiler build support isn't regularly tested like GCC/Clang, and it's susceptible to occasional breakage on master. Hopefully not on release-0.3, but please let us know if that happens too. It would be great if we could somehow get CI running with Intel compilers, or maybe one or two nightly buildbots using them?
Some inline assembly was added in PR #9266, which also broke the (barely-supported) build with MSVC. Intel should at least allow 64 bit inline assembly, I would think? Jameson Nash has a suggested workaround involving longjmp for the MSVC case, but I'm not sure whether it applies to you - are you trying this on OSX or Linux? This is a legitimate build problem, please open an issue (e.g. "Build broken with Intel compilers") and cross-reference this thread. Include as much info about your system and compiler versions as you can. -Tony On Tuesday, January 6, 2015 1:37:17 PM UTC-8, [email protected] wrote: > > Forgive me if this is a noob question but I'm having some trouble building > Julia.
