Class CudaLinker

java.lang.Object
com.ibm.cuda.CudaLinker
public final class CudaLinker extends Object
The CudaLinker class supports combining one or more code fragments to form a module that can be then loaded on a CUDA-capable device.

When no longer required, a linker must be destroyed (see destroy()).

  • Constructor Details

      public CudaLinker(CudaDevice device) throws CudaException
      Creates a new linker for the specified device using default options.
      Parameters:
      device - the device on which the resulting module is to be loaded
      Throws:
      CudaException - if a CUDA exception occurs

    • CudaLinker

      public CudaLinker(CudaDevice device, CudaJitOptions options) throws CudaException
      Creates a new linker for the specified device using the specified options.
      Parameters:
      device - the device on which the resulting module is to be loaded
      options - the desired options, or null for the default options
      Throws:

    • getErrorLogBuffer

      public String getErrorLogBuffer()
      Returns the contents of the error log.

      The result will be empty unless this linker was created with options which specified a positive error log buffer size (see CudaJitOptions.setErrorLogBufferSize(int)) and errors were reported.
