CUDA compiler is unable to compile a simple test program

Question

I am trying to get NVIDIA\'s CUDA setup and installed on my PC which has an NVIDIA GEFORCE RTX 2080 SUPER graphics card. After hours of trying different things and lots of resea

Answer 1

I was able to get a simple "Hello World" compiling in CLion by making sure your PATH is updated to include

C:/Program Files/NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit/CUDA/v11.0/bin

My CMakeLists.txt looks like this

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.17)
project(cuda_test CUDA)

find_package(CUDA)
set(CMAKE_CUDA_STANDARD 14)

add_executable(cuda_test main.cu)

set_target_properties(
        cuda_test
        PROPERTIES
        CUDA_SEPARABLE_COMPILATION ON)

And using Visual Studio 2017 with these settings in the toolchain
