As MeeGo is in the very early phase I guess there is nothing for it yet. On the other hand, I found following post from QtLabs blog: http://labs.trolltech.com/blogs/2010/04/07/using-opencl-with-qt/ So it looks like there is work on integrating Qt with OpenCL and we could expect some progress - but for now it is pure speculation on which devices it will be available. -- Tomasz Rybak bogom...@post.pl GPG/PGP key ID: 2AD5 9860 Fingerprint A481 824E 7DD3 9C0E C40A 488E C654 FB33 2AD5 9860 http://member.acm.org/~tomaszrybak signature.asc Description: To jest część wiadomości podpisana cyfrowo ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

OpenCL on Maemo
Hello. I have been reading Maemo Base Port Technical Requirements v 1.1 from 25.1.2010 by Jari Palojärvi In chapter 3.4.4 OpenCL one can read: The Base Port should provide an implementation of the OpenCL 1.0 interface for general-purpose parallel programming of heterogeneous systems, especially for the use of GPUs for computation (Khronos group standard). I have enabled Extras, Extras-testing and Extras-Devel repositories but could not find any package regarding OpenCL. `apt-cache search opencl` returned no packages. I have found only two threads on t.m.o mentioning OpenCL http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=35950 http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=32475 both of them from 2009, and both ending with it would be good to have. So, official Nokia document requires Maemo devices to provide OpenCL capabilities but currently there is no possibility to write code using OpenCL. Is it just left for later to implement (first go updates, additional features must wait) or MeeGo changed everything and there is no hope for OpenCL?
