Hello, I am making an effort to build simple helloworld in opencl and using opencl-programming-guide which is about 2010-ish which is sort of old. Now I am trying on relatively newer VS15 so I expected some compilation issues. Here are the details:
On Windows 10:
- Installed VS 15
- OpenCL was hard to find! here is the link: https://github.com/GPUOpen-LibrariesAndSDKs/OCL-SDK/releases
- cmake 3.14-rc2 installed.
- May help adding the cl.exe path to Windows PATH variable.
- Point to opencl source project where it contains CMakeLists.txt.
- Select VS15 during configuration and generate.
I had to include header location in project's include to build to continue otherwise it wont find CL\cl.h.
Now I opened ALL_BUILD.vcxproj and build helloworld project but it builds with huge number of errors, including deprecated function and link errors.
Here are the full C/P of errors, at this time I decided to not pursue and try to fix in the source, instead I am looking and asking which version of VS is most compatible with OCL-SDK???
