Question

Could you recommend any open source (apart from eclipse) CUDA IDE that can be used directly (no additioanl plugins, etc)?

PS: therey is also any online-cloud CUDA IDE? (I found http://ideone.com/8lYvf, but not valid for CUDA)

Answer 1

You can use QT-Creator, it works quite well in combination with cmake:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6.2)

project(GPU_PROJECT)
#set(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Debug)

#In case findCUDA.cmake wasn't found, download it from here
# https://gforge.sci.utah.edu/gf/project/findcuda/scmsvn/?action=browse&path=%2F*checkout*%2Ftrunk%2FFindCuda.html 
# and put it into SOURCE_DIR/CMake
#set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/CMake" ${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH})

#### Cuda 
# find_package(CUDA)
find_package(CUDA 3 QUIET REQUIRED)
# find_package(CUDA 2.1)
# find_package(CUDA 2.2)
# find_package(CUDA 2.3)
# find_package(CUDA 2.1 REQUIRED)
# find_package(CUDA 2.2 REQUIRED)
# find_package(CUDA 2.3 REQUIRED)
# find_package(CUDA 2.1 EXACT)
# find_package(CUDA 2.2 EXACT)
# find_package(CUDA 2.3 EXACT)
# find_package(CUDA 2.1 EXACT REQUIRED)
# find_package(CUDA 2.2 EXACT REQUIRED)
# find_package(CUDA 2.3 EXACT REQUIRED)
# find_package(CUDA 2.2 EXACT QUIET REQUIRED)

if (CUDA_FOUND) 
message(" * CUDA ${CUDA_VERSION} was found")
else(CUDA_FOUND)
    message(" * CUDA is not found")
    message(FATAL_ERROR "Not all CUDA libraries are found")
endif(CUDA_FOUND)


set(SRCS
     src/main.cpp
     src/cuda_core.cu
)
cuda_add_executable(GPU_PROJECT ${SRCS})
target_link_libraries(GPU_PRJECT ${SOME_LIBRARY})

If you want to have additional debug functionalities, replace gdb with cuda-gdb in the QT-Creator config.
