I cannot compile the attached brook+ code. The error message is following:

Problem with compiling C:\Users\nishihei\AppData\Local\Temp\brc1DE4.tmp\Temp_bad_addr.hlsl
Error--:cal back end failed to compile kernel "bad"

This problem happens when a program calls a function with a constant buffer parameter. How can I do in order to avoid this problem?

kernel float4 inner(float4 b[1], float i) { return b; } kernel void bad(out float4 a<>, float4 b[1]) { a = inner(b, indexof(a).x); }

Hi

Not sure if brook+ supports using pointers (or arrays) as function parameters. Do you see any working examples of that? If not, probably it is not supported at all.

Hello, the729.

When I use non-constant arrays such as the attached code, the compilation succeeds. And when constantnesses of the caller and the callee are different, the following error happens:

Line (10) : ERROR--1: Problem with call expression in kernel: Mismatched resource type of gather array for argument 0

    Statement: inner(b, (indexof(a)).x) in a = inner(b, (indexof(a)).x)

***Semantic check found 1 errors

kernel float4 inner(float4 b[], float i) { return b; } kernel void bad(out float4 a<>, float4 b[]) { a = inner(b, indexof(a).x); }
