CURAND Library - Compiling Error - Undefined reference to functions

Question

I have the following code which I am trying to compile using nvcc.

Code:

#include 
#include 
#include 
         


        

Answer 1

The problem is not the header file, otherwise you would have got a compile error. You have a linker error. You will need to tell your linker where to find the object or library file that contains those functions.

Answer 2

@Wilo Maldonado: just use a linker flag -lcurand and additionally -L/path/to/cuda/libs if you do not have it already
