Sampler Objects (s#)

 

built-in functions to read from an image in akernel take a sampler as an argument

 

(1) create using OpenCL functions and passed as argument values to the kernel

(2) declare the samplers inside a kernel

 

cl_sampler clCreateSampler( cl_context context, cl_bool normalized_coords, cl_addressing_mode address_mode, cl_filter_mode filter_mode, cl_int *errcode_ret);

 clRetainSampler: increments the sampler reference count

clReleaseSampler: decrements the sampler reference count

clGetSamplerInfo: information about the sampler object

 

Program Objects (c#)

 

program object consists of a set of kernels, as well as auxiliary functions and constant data used by kernels

program cab be generated online or offline
