Installing

In a best case scenario, building and installing the libraries and examples should be as simple as this:

mkdir build; cd build; export CC=<C compiler>; export CUDACXX=<CUDA compiler>;
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<install location>;
make -j install;

This assumes that you have a few things:

  1. a sane C compiler,
  2. a sane CUDA compiler,
  3. CMake version 3.9 or newer.

CMake Flags

The most useful CMake flags to use during configure are listed below. When passing a flag to cmake during configure, recall that it takes the form -D<flag>=value.

Flag Option/ Value Description
CMAKE_RELEASE_TYPE Debug, Release Build either the Debug or Release version.
ENABLE_CUDA_BUILD ON, OFF Toggle whether to build the GPU versions.
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX <where to install> Specify install location for make install.
BUILD_EXAMPLES ON, OFF Toggle whether to build examples.
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS ON, OFF Toggle whether to build libraries as shared.
CMAKE_CUDA_FLAGS options for CUDA Used to specify target compute capability.
