[Pyopencl-devs] Ubuntu64 9.04 for Python 2.6 binary release

[Goncalo C. <gl...@gm...>]

Hey,

There's an egg release for Python 2.6 and Ubuntu 9.04 64-bit available
to download. It reflects the latest changes in the repo.
Unfortunately, I do not have access to other platforms so it will have
to be compiled from source for now.

Having said that, I have Snow Leopard on order so will release for Mac
as well when I get it.

The code itself should be pretty functional but perhaps not as easy to
use as most people would like. That would
be fixed over the coming weeks. I'm working on a few abstractions to
the current code base.

Cheers,

Goncalo

[Pyopencl-devs] Milestone 2 released

[Goncalo C. <gl...@gm...>]

Hey all,

I have released Milestone 2 to SourceForge. It is still a source
release and is based on NVIDIA's 1.2 beta release. It adds
a lot more exception support, query info support and notify callbacks
support. The example has been improved to
add a notify callback for BuildProgram.

Most of OpenCL has now bindings including the GL bridge.

I will concentate my efforts on adding examples and if those are deem
to be functional
will then move the project to alpha status.

Cheers,

Goncalo

[Pyopencl-devs] Introduction

[Goncalo C. <gl...@gm...>]

In the spirit of "release early, release often", I will be making
tarballs of milestone releases.
Although they will not be feature complete, and most likely not fit
for production use,
hopefully they will allow for early feedback, ideas, performance issues, etc.

The code in git as it stands can perform basic computations, as in the
example provided. Furthermore,
it has support for python exceptions when an error condition is
encountered and optional
parameter support when allowed by OpenCL. No need to specify None or
NULL as in the C code and
only the parameters need to be set are set.

The current TODO list can probably be described as:

Create more examples or convert those from NVIDIA. This will provide
insight and direction on what and how to bind.

Port to Windows and OS/X where available.

The rest of it!

Cheers,

Goncalo
