CUDPP has currently been tested in Windows XP, Windows Vista, Mac OS X and Linux. See
Release Notes for release specific platform support.
CUDPP can be built using either MSVC 7.1 (.NET 2003) or MSVC 8 (2005). To build, open either cudpp/cudpp.sln or cudpp_vc7.sln, depending on whether you have MSVC 8 or MSVC 7, respectively. Then you can build the library using the "build" command as you would with any other workspace. There are four configurations: debug, release, emudebug, and emurelease. The first two are self-explanatory. The second two are built to use CUDA device emulation, meaning they will be run (slowly) on the CPU.
CUDPP can be built using standard g++ and Make tools on Linux, by typing "make" in the "cudpp/" subdirectory. Before building CUDPP, you should first build the CUDA Utility Library (libcutil) by typing "make; make dbg=1" in the "common/" subdirectory. This will generate libcutil.a and libcutilD.a.
The makefile for CUDPP and all sample applications take the optional arguments "emu=1" and "dbg=1". The former builds CUDPP for device emulation, and the latter for debugging. The two flags can be combined. "verbose=1" can be used to see all compiler output.
The sample applications in the "apps/" subdirectory can be built exactly like CUDPP is--either by opening the appropriate .sln/.vcproj file in MSVC in Windows, or using "make" in Linux.
