Written by Michael Larabel in Free Software on 5 July 2016 at 04:28 PM EDT. Add A Comment

There is a new release available of cf4ocl, the C Framework for OpenCL. This open-source project provides an object-oriented interface to the OpenCL API and offers various other features.

The CF4OCL v2.1.0 release was made yesterday and adds an offline kernel compiler and linker, a silent "by index" device filter and context constructor, and OpenCL 2.1 symbols. There are also many bug fixes, CMake build system improvements, and a range of other enhancements for this multi-platform framework.

More details on the CF4OCL 2.1 release can be found via the GitHub project page.

Interestingly, the project has also put out a list of known OpenCL driver/implementation bugs.
