  • An example for OpenCL 3.0?
    4 projects | /r/OpenCL | 11 Mar 2023
    Please note that OpenCL consists of two parts: host API and a separate language which is used to write kernels (code which is going to be offloaded to devices). OpenCL specification describes host APIs as C-style APIs and that is what implementors has to provide. However, there are number of various libraries which provides bindings for other languages: - C++ - Python - Go - Rust

    I thought the project could be dead, but then I looked into the latest commits to the repository, and it is certainly not dead as a project.
