[Brook-devs] RE: Brook for GPUs

[Nick T. <ni...@nv...>]

Hi guys,

Finally got vc++ installed, and got brook working on my laptop.  I did have
to change the 'workspace' enum in nv30gl.hpp from 2048 to 512, because my
laptop has 32MB of memory.  Is this going to cause any significant problems?
From my quick inspection of the code, it looks fine, and the test apps I ran
worked, just wanted to make sure.

thanks,
-Nick

   Brook for GPUs is an active research project at the Stanford
University Computer Graphics Lab to explore general purpose computing
on modern programmable graphics hardware.  BrookGPU is a compiler and
runtime implementation of the Brook stream programming language which
provides an easy, C-like programming environment for today's GPU.

   The Beta version of our software is now available for download.  If
you are interested in GPU programming and would like to try BrookGPU,
please visit the link above.

Features:
   * C-like language for data parallel programming on the GPU.
   * No graphics or GPU programming experience needed.
   * Support for both ATI Radeon 9x00 and NVIDIA GeForceFX/QuadroFX
     hardware, using both DirectX and OpenGL APIs.
   * Complete CPU fall back implementation

Brook for GPUs is an ongoing research project at the Stanford University
Graphics Lab which is funded by IBM, SONY, ATI, NVIDIA, DARPA, and the
DOE.

[Brook-devs] Re: Brook for GPUs and Cygwin

[Suresh V. <su...@re...>]

Hi,
  I was trying to make brook via cygwin on my XP box. since it finds
Windows-NT.mk file and then assumes I have visual studio, should I create
a cygwin edited version of the file that has the linux settings and the
appropriate NT flags ? or is there something more involved that I need to
do.

thanks

Sorry, momentary lapse of intelligence.

Looks like the Windows version depends upon MS VC++ to build at least brcc,
I'll go install that now.

Hi folks,

I'm having trouble building Brook.  It's on a brand new WinXP installation,
with Cygwin (only gcc, g++, make, flex, bison, binutils), ActivePerl 5.8.0,
and Python 2.3.3 installed.  I'm hoping someone can help.

When I just type make, I get the non-helpful "Error 255" from make.  Any
ideas?

Thanks, and happy new year.

[Anthony S. <she...@st...>]

Do I still need Cg if I am compiling to the DX9 backend?

One of the web pages says that an ARB backend is supported, is that 
true, yet?

Thanks alot Ian, I think my lab is going to really love working with this.
