Direct3D interoperability Error in cuD3D9CtxCreate(). Error description :CUDA_ERROR_UNKNOWN

Accelerated Computing CUDA CUDA Programming and Performance

Hi, i am new to CUDA development and i am facing a problem in my code using Driver-API for D3D interoperability.

The Error is CUDA_ERROR_UNKNOWN (Runtime Error) while using the function cuD3D9CtxCreate(CUcontext *pCtx, CUdevice * pCuDevice, unsigned int flags,IDirect3DDevice9 *pDxDevice);

Platform used : Windows XP 64 bit

Graphics Library used is : Microsoft DirectX SDK (November 2008)

CUDA version : CUDA 2.2

The values of flags used is =0.

ALL other functions like cuD3D9GetDevice(&dev, adapterId.DeviceName);

are returning CUDA_SUCCESS.

a small part of my code is :-

int main()

{

CUresult resu;

CUdevice dev;

}

ZeroMemory(&d3dpp ,sizeof(d3dpp));

d3dpp.EnableAutoDepthStencil = FALSE;

// Create device

}

// Initialize driver API

if(resu != CUDA_SUCCESS)

{

}

// Create module from binary file

CUmodule cuModule;

// Get function handle from module

// Create vertex buffer and register it with CUDA

unsigned int size = width * height * sizeof(CUSTOMVERTEX);

device->CreateVertexBuffer(size, 0, D3DFVF_XYZ|D3DFVF_TEX1, D3DPOOL_DEFAULT, &positionsVB, 0);

cuD3D9RegisterResource(positionsVB, CU_D3D9_REGISTER_FLAGS_NONE);

cuD3D9ResourceSetMapFlags(positionsVB, CU_D3D9_MAPRESOURCE_FLAGS_WRITEDISCARD);

// Launch rendering loop

//unsigned int temp =0;

while (1)

{

    Render();

    //temp++;

}

}

All initializations of Devices have been done correctly.

While Running the program a window is also created with an exception.

Thanks in Advance. :rolleyes:

Sorry for the format of code attatched earlier.

I have solved this problem by changing the D3d vertex processing mode from software to hardware.

result = D3D->CreateDevice(adapter, D3DDEVTYPE_HAL, hWnd, D3DCREATE_HARDWARE_VERTEXPROCESSING, &d3dpp, &device);
