      Returns:
      the contents of the information log

      Returns:
      this options object

    • setGenerateLineInfo

      public CudaJitOptions setGenerateLineInfo(boolean enabled)
      Specifies whether to generate line number information.

      Applies to compiler only.

      Parameters:
      enabled - whether line number information should be generated
      Returns:
      this options object

    • setInfoLogBufferSize

      public CudaJitOptions setInfoLogBufferSize(int size)
      Specifies the size, in bytes, to allocate for capturing informational messages.

      Applies to compiler and linker.

      Parameters:

      Returns:
      this options object

    • setJitFallbackStrategy

      public CudaJitOptions setJitFallbackStrategy(CudaJitOptions.Fallback strategy)
      Specifies the fallback strategy if an exactly matching binary object cannot be found.

      Applies to: compiler only

      Parameters:
      strategy - the desired fallback strategy
      Returns:
      this options object

    • setLogVerbose

      public CudaJitOptions setLogVerbose(boolean verbose)
      Specifies whether to generate verbose log messages.

      Applies to: compiler and linker

      Parameters:
      verbose - whether verbose log messages should be generated
      Returns:
      this options object

    • setMaxRegisters

      public CudaJitOptions setMaxRegisters(int limit)
      Specifies the maximum number of registers that a thread may use.

      Applies to: compiler only

      Parameters:
      limit - the maximum number of registers a thread may use
      Returns:
      this options object

    • setOptimizationLevel

      public CudaJitOptions setOptimizationLevel(int level)
      Specifies the level of optimization to be applied to generated code (0 - 4), with 4 being the default and highest level of optimization.

      Applies to compiler only.

      Parameters:
      level - the desired optimization level
      Returns:
      this options object

    • setTarget

      public CudaJitOptions setTarget(CudaJitTarget target)
      Specifies the desired compute target.

      Cannot be combined with setThreadsPerBlock(int).

      Applies to compiler and linker.

      Parameters:
      target - the desired compute target
      Returns:
      this options object

    • setTargetFromCuContext

      public CudaJitOptions setTargetFromCuContext()
      Specifies that the target should be determined based on the current attached context.

      Applies to compiler and linker.

      Returns:
      this options object

    • setThreadsPerBlock

      public CudaJitOptions setThreadsPerBlock(int limit)
      Specifies the minimum number of threads per block for compilation.

      This restricts the resource utilization of the compiler (e.g. maximum registers) such that a block with the given number of threads should be able to launch based on register limitations. Note, this option does not currently take into account any other resource limitations, such as shared memory utilization.

      Cannot be combined with setTarget(CudaJitTarget).

      Applies to compiler only.

      Parameters:
      limit - the desired minimum number of threads per block
      Returns:
      this options object
