so I've been successfully working on my CUDA program on my Linux but I would like to support Windows platform as well. However, I've been struggling with correctly compiling it. I use :
- Windows 10
- Cmake 3.15
- Visual Studio 2017
- CUDA Toolkit 10.1
When using the old deprecated Cmake CUDA support of using find_package(CUDA 10.1 REQUIRED) it correctly reports the correct path to the toolkit when using it. However, it is my understanding that the latest Cmake does not properly support the old method anymore and that cuda_add_libraryetc don't properly link anymore. So I have reformatted my 'CMakeLists.txt' file to the following based on this:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.8 FATAL_ERROR)
project(myproject LANGUAGES CXX CUDA)
add_library(mylib SHARED mycudalib.cu)
# My code requires C++ 11 for the CUDA library, not sure which ones of these
# will do the trick correctly. Never got the compiler this far.
target_compile_features(mylib PUBLIC cxx_std_11)
SET(CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD 11)
SET(CMAKE_CUDA_STANDARD 11)
set_target_properties( mylib PROPERTIES CUDA_SEPARABLE_COMPILATION ON)
add_executable(test_mylib test.cpp)
target_link_libraries(test_mylib mylib ${CUDA_CUFFT_LIBRARIES})
However, I get the following error from line 2:
CMake Error at C:/Program Files/CMake/share/cmake-3.15/Modules/CMakeDetermineCompilerId.cmake:345 (message):
No CUDA toolset found.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
C:/Program Files/CMake/share/cmake-3.15/Modules/CMakeDetermineCompilerId.cmake:32 (CMAKE_DETERMINE_COMPILER_ID_BUILD)
C:/Program Files/CMake/share/cmake-3.15/Modules/CMakeDetermineCUDACompiler.cmake:72 (CMAKE_DETERMINE_COMPILER_ID)
CMakeLists.txt:2 (project)
I've tried a variation of suggestions online such as adding the following to 'CMakeLists.txt':
set(CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER "C:/Program Files/NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit/CUDA/v10.1/bin/nvcc")
or adding the following variable to Cmake:
This is the 'CMakeLists.txt' file I use on Linux to compile succesfully. The difference is there I use Cmake 3.5 and CUDA Toolkit 9.0:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.5)
project( myproject)
find_package(CUDA 9.0 REQUIRED)
if(CUDA_FOUND)
list(APPEND CUDA_NVCC_FLAGS "-std=c++11")
endif(CUDA_FOUND)
cuda_add_library(mylib SHARED mycudalib.cu)
cuda_add_executable(test_mylib test.cpp)
target_link_libraries(test_mylib mylib ${CUDA_CUFFT_LIBRARIES})
