In the example compilation command below, INT_LIB is either LP64 or ILP64 for 32 and 64 bit integers respectively.

cl <example_name>.cpp /I \<path to aocl-da headers>\include\<INT_LIB> /EHsc /MD
   \<path to aocl-da>\lib\<INT_LIB>\aocl-da.lib
   \<path to amd-sparse>\lib\<INT_LIB>\shared\aoclsparse.lib
   \<path to amd-libflame>\lib\<INT_LIB>\AOCL-LibFlame-Win-MT-dll.lib
   \<path to amd-blis>\lib\<INT_LIB>\AOCL-LibBlis-Win-MT-dll.lib
   \<path to amd-utils>\lib\libaoclutils.lib /openmp:llvm

The same command will work with cl replaced by clang-cl (in which case, simply use /openmp) and linking statically using /MT.

Note

You should ensure the folders containing the libraries to be linked are on your Windows PATH environment variable e.g. using set PATH=%PATH%;C:\<path_to_BLAS_and_LAPACK>. Depending on how your system is set up, and which functions you are using, you may also need to link to some Fortran runtime libraries such as libfifcore-mt.lib. The easiest way to do this is to source the ifort compiler using e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\oneAPI\setvars.bat.
