###  | # Boost.Build ## intel-win32 toolset

## Introduction

Boost.Build's intel-win32 toolset supports the Intel C++ Compiler for Windows. This compiler is compatible with the msvc tools.

## Configuration Variables

The intel-win32 toolset responds to the following variables which can be set in the environment or configured on the jam command-line using `-sVARIABLE_NAME=`value. This toolset is by default an extension to the msvc toolset and therefore responds to all of the MSVC configuration variables in addition to those listed below. The toolset can be configure to extend the vc7 instead.

Variable Name | Semantics | Default | Notes
--- | --- | --- | ---
`INTELC` | Path to installation of the compiler tools. | (none) | This is the FTJam compatability version of `INTEL_PATH`.
`INTEL_PATH` | The path of the compiler installation. | `$(INTELC)` |
`INTEL_TOOL_PATH` | Path to the directory of the compiler tool executables. | `$(INTEL_PATH)/bin/` |
`INTEL_BASE_MSVC_TOOLSET` | The base toolset to extend this toolset from. This can specify either to extend the `msvc toolset`, or the `vc7 toolset`. | `msvc` | If you have both vc6 and vc7, you may want your Intel compiler to use the VC7 libarries instead of the default vc6 libraries. In which case set this to `vc7`.
