Opencl11/ //OpenCL 1.1 header files (downloaded from )įirst we will build the code to make sure it works, I like to do an “out of source” build like so: cd part1 Opencl10/ //OpenCL 1.0 header files (downloaded from ) Part1.5/ //the source code for the part1.5 (C++ bindings)Ĭmake/ //CMake scripts that help locate necessary libraries In the advcl directory you should have the following directories: part1/ //the source code files for this tutorial (Ubuntu ATI users might like extra guidance)ĬMake ( introduction and in-depth tutorial )Īnd it helps to have Git ( introduction and nice book)ĭownload the code and for the rest of the tutorial I will refer to the directory it’s in as advcl

OPENCL XCODE TUTORIAL DRIVERS

NVIDIA or ATI GPU SDK and OpenCL enabled drivers Please let me know if you have build problems or device issues! Throughout the tutorial I will refer to device and GPU interchangeably, OpenCL can run on CPUs already and is targeting many other devices, but for now I’m assuming a GPGPU bias. Also the code should build against the ATI Stream SDK and run on the runtime, you can assume I’m complying with OpenCL 1.0 (1.1 may be covered in the more advanced topics, and I’ll point it out). Unfortunately I haven’t spent any time developing on Windows so for now my tutorials will be UNIX centric (I would LOVE any help in setting up a windows environment, I’ll need to eventually for my Blender project).

My code works for me on my Macbook Pro (with Geforce 9400M) running Snow Leopard with the NVIDIA GPU SDK as well as on the Ubuntu 10.4 workstations (with GTX 480 or Geforce 8800GTX). NOTE: If you are interested in using the C++ Bindings, I recommend you check out my revision of this tutorial. Learning by example works best for me so make sure to get the code! It can only help you to have a copy of the OpenCL specification handy, and it doesn’t hurt (too bad) to read it! I’m still learning, I’m sharing what I’ve found to work). This tutorial series is aimed at developers trying to learn OpenCL from the bottom up, with a focus on practicality (i.e.
