Hi, for people who may want CUDA binaries with MinGW-w64: I found a method that works easily and (legally :) ) and updated the wiki to include it:
You will need the Windows SDK (I downloaded version 7.0 since 7.1 has a very buggy installer). You still need something more: Apparently the cuda compiler has a "hard-coded" directory for 64-bit compilers. To make the fix, copy the needed file "vcvars64.bat" and rename it to "vcvarsamd64.bat" as follows: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin\vcvars64.bat to C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin\amd64\vcvarsamd64.bat (method copied from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2970493/cuda-linking-error-visual-express-2008-nvcc-fatal-due-to-null-configuratio ) Now if you try to compile from a msvc terminal you should get your kernels :) This method may even work without installing MSVC express though I haven't tested this. If debug windows dlls work as well only with Windows SDK then MinGW developers who build debug builds can skip Visual Studio Express 2008 and only download the SDK. If anyone can test this it would be nice. _______________________________________________ Bf-committers mailing list Bf-committers@blender.org http://lists.blender.org/mailman/listinfo/bf-committers
