Hi, all,
I need to include some .h files into .cl OpenCL kernels but I haven't found a way to solve it.
My problem is described as follows:
1.
(1) a kernel in example.cl file:
__kernel void example_kernel(length m, length n){
....
}
(2) type length is defined in test_header.h (in the same directory of all the other files)
typedef int length;
(3) According to OpenCL Spec, adding -I when building program
ciErrNum = clBuildProgram(cpProgram, 0, NULL, "-I ./", NULL, NULL);
But this doesn't work, the program got crashed at this line, the log of building program showed:
"/tmp/OCLkQF3NK.cl", line 2: error: overloaded function "length" is not a type
name
__kernel void example_kernel(length m, length n)
^
"/tmp/OCLkQF3NK.cl", line 2: error: overloaded function "length" is not a type
name
__kernel void example_kernel(length m, length n)
^
2 errors detected in the compilation of "/tmp/OCLkQF3NK.cl".
Internal error: clc compiler invocation failed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Previously I just redefined types and functions as Macros in the kernels to avoid including headers.
But now, too many functions from the headers are needed, so I need to find a way to import the headers for kernel.
Does anyone have any idea about what could be the problem?
I really need help with this.
Thanks,
Shawn
