# OpenCLTM API C++ bindings
Doxgen documentation for the cl2.hpp header is available here:
http://khronosgroup.github.io/OpenCL-CLHPP/
Components:
* `include/CL/cl2.hpp`:
The latest, maintained, version of the C++ bindings. It should work with all
versions of OpenCL (including 1.x). This is what most users will want.
* `docs`:
Doxygen file used to generate HTML documentation for `cl2.hpp`.
* `examples`:
A simple example application using the very basic features of the bindings.
* `tests`:
A (very small, incomplete) set of regression tests. Building the tests
requires Python, Ruby, Unity and CMock. For the last two we use
[Unity 2.1.0](https://github.com/ThrowTheSwitch/Unity/releases/tag/v2.1.0)
and [CMock top-of-tree from Github](https://github.com/ThrowTheSwitch/CMock)
(the version 2.0.204 on Sourceforge does not work).
* `CMakeLists.txt`:
Build system for the examples and tests and logic for the bindings
installation.
To get external dependencies needed for testing, use `--recursive` when cloning
the repository, or run `git submodule update --init`.
You may need to tell CMake where to find the OpenCL headers and libraries,
using the variables `OPENCL_INCLUDE_DIR` and `OPENCL_LIB_DIR`.
These can be set either as environment variables, or on the cmake command line
using the syntax `-D=`.
The following is an example set of commands to checkout and build the C++
bindings (adapt paths as required):
```
git clone --recursive https://github.com/KhronosGroup/OpenCL-CLHPP
cd OpenCL-CLHPP
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DOPENCL_INCLUDE_DIR=/path/to/OpenCL/headers -DOPENCL_LIB_DIR=/path/to/OpenCL/library
make
make test
```
After building, the headers appear in `build/include/CL/`.
If Doxygen is available, you can generate HTML documentation by typing `make docs`.
