Intel IPP - free Community licence

This is way too complicated. Just install IPP using the installer from the DMG and add

  1. These lines into the Extra Linker Flags box (important, don’t add it to “External libraries to link” box, it won’t compile and spit out error messages like crazy):

     /opt/intel/ipp/lib/libippi.a  /opt/intel/ipp/lib/libipps.a /opt/intel/ipp/lib/libippvm.a /opt/intel/ipp/lib/libippcore.a
    
  2. this line into the header search paths:

     /opt/intel/ipp/include
    
  3. And this into the “Extra library search paths”:

     /opt/intel/ipp/lib
    

Then #include <ipp.h> the header in your code and start using it. No need to become superuser or modify anything in Xcode (at least for me)…
