Compiler information for Intel LLVM not shown in banner

ROOT
1

ROOT Version: 6.36.04
Platform: Ubuntu 22.04
Compiler: Intel LLVM 2025.2.1

I found that if one build ROOT with Intel LLVM (icx, icpx) then compiler info will not show in ROOT banner, i.e.

So it’s blank following the With, which should have been somthing like Intel LLVM 2025.2.1.

Just a small issue report for your information!

Could you try to see if this helps?

First check if icpx -dumpfullversion -dumpversion returns sensible info.

Thanks for your response and patch!

icpx shows this:

$ icpx -dumpfullversion -dumpversion
21.0.0git

It seem that it dumps the underlying LLVM version. Is this sensible or not?

Thanks, yes, looks reasonable.

I’ve check the patch:

icpx)
   cxxTemp=`$CXX -dumpfullversion -dumpversion`
   COMPILERVERSSTR="Intel oneAPI icpx $cxxTemp"
   COMPILERVERS="icpx"
   ;;

So it will print

Intel oneAPI icpx 21.0.0git

I think may be print

Intel oneAPI icpx (LLVM 21.0.0git)

would be better? Since it should be Intel oneAPI icpx 2025.2.1 at first sense.
