The NVIDIA CUDA Compiler Driver. More information: https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/cuda-compiler-driver-nvcc.

  • Compile a CUDA program:

nvcc {{path/to/source.cu}} -o {{path/to/executable}}

  • Generate debu[g] information:

nvcc {{path/to/source.cu}} -o {{path/to/executable}} --debug --device-debug

  • Include libraries from a different path:

nvcc {{path/to/source.cu}} -o {{path/to/executable}} -I{{path/to/includes}} -L{{path/to/library}} -l{{library_name}}

  • Specify the compute capability for a specific GPU architecture:

nvcc {{path/to/source.cu}} -o {{path/to/executable}} --generate-code arch={{arch_name}},code={{gpu_code_name}}
