CUDA VS Wizard 2.0 Release

[Grordek]

Hi, big ‘Thank You’ for this tool…

I have another question: Do you have any File or any Documenation where I can follow which libraries are registered into VS and what the switches are the Wizard is setting, simply how the Wizard works?
Would be great help. I have to include CUDA into another developement-environment and would like to learn more over some dependencies.

Hi!

I also have a problem with integrating CUDA into another development-environment - in Matlab.

This problem only occurred after installing the wizard, before everything was okay with my .cu-files (using the file of JaredHoberock).

Now when I run only C+±files, it works perfect. But using .cu-files, Matlab says “??? Invalid MEX-file”.

Can anybody help me what I should do?

I have Vistax64 w/ VS2008 installed (with the x64 compiler tools) - I can compile several of the examples but now want to create my own using the CUDA VS Wizard but every time I do File → New → Project → Visual C++ → CUDA64 → CUDAWinApp
I get no solution or directory created and all I get is a error message along the bottom of VS2008 "Creating project ‘CUDAWinApp1’… project creation failed.

I have tried to create it in
C:\ProgramData\NVIDIA Corporation\NVIDIA CUDA SDK\projects
and in my vista user folder
C:\Users\username\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects

I have Administrative Privledges and Installed from the CUDA_VS_Wizard_W64.2.0.zip file
I tried a version downloaded from SourceForge:
[url=“CUDA VS Wizard download | SourceForge.net”]http://sourceforge.net/projects/cudavswizard/[/url]
and also a version from the forum:
[url=“http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=83054”]http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=83054[/url]

Does anyone have any Ideas?

sorry for posting in off topic - I was a little late in realizing it was the xp forum:

Anyway I found the solution to my problem…

Essentially the problem is a typo in a file installed by the CUDA VS Wizard (64-bit version)

Try This Link - I couldn’t get the Wizard to Even RUN!

followed the instructions from this post…

Hi,

I am new to CUDA on windows. I too face the same problem.

The visual studio 2008 gives, “project creation failed”.

Can you please clarify about the typo and the file in which the typo occurs.

Also, please let me know what are the other steps involved in creating a new CUDA Windows application successfully.

Thanks

The details are here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcprojects\CUDA64WinApp.vsz there is a small typo error for the 64 bit version. If you only have VS 2008 installed and no previous version on a 64-bit system then you need to correct this typo before the 64 bit Wizard will run.

Find The line

Wizard=VsWizard.VsWizardEngine.8.0

The line should be:

Wizard=VsWizard.VsWizardEngine.9.0"

[gvsaradhi]

Thanks !

It works after the correcting for the typo in the CUDA64WinApp.vsz file.

I have the same problem, only VS2008 installed and Windows Vista 64 bits. Don’t create the solution folder and so on… :blink:

I changed de VSZ file like you described but still de same error… I run it with admin privileges.

Should I try with CUDA 2.0 instead of 2.1?

Any idea?

Thanks.

PD: The Wizard for 32 bits works perfect, but I can’t compile the solution (I haven’t cutil32D.lib)

Dear Kyzaho,

I am switching to CUDA programming on Windows XP from LINUX. I have downloaded the above wizard, and I understand that it was successfully installed as well. Could you please tell me how to update the above log as you have written. I could not find any log file. I am new to this kind of integration and especially to Visual Studio actually. I am using 32bit Windows XP on my Core 2 Duo M/C. Your valuable suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks, I was having the same problem, this fixed it!

Where should I add the -arch sm_13 to enable double precision? I have tried the “additional options” field CUDA->Command Line, but that just resulted in:

Error 1 fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file ‘.\Debug\x.obj’

Thanks,

Thanks a lot.

Dear OpenHero,

The wizard works great now with my winXP 64 bits visual studio 2008.

Thank you very much!

Hi!

Very nice vs2008 wizard. Great job!

Could you provide with info how to completely uninstall CUDA64 wizard?

By the way, by mistake I installed CUDA64 on Win32 (Windows 7) & Vs2008, what caused impossibility to compile CUDA SDK projects :( Some errors with W64, impossibility to open compilled *.obj files, memory access runtime errors, and similar. How can I fix it now?

Regards,
A.
