calling python AI library from DPC++ application

Manoranjan — Sat, 15 Aug 2020 10:30:14 GMT

Hi ,

while trying to port an application developed in C++ and calls python AI routines (embedding python) which is working fine to DPC++ application face the following issues

1. the called from outside the kernel function in DPC++ , function is declared and defined with SYCL_EXTERNAL as below

extern SYCL_EXTERNAL int call_python();

SYCL_EXTERNAL int call_python() {...}

but still ware getting compilation error as "error : SYCL kernel cannot call an undefined function without SYCL_EXTERNAL attribute" .

does it mean that every function being called by function call_python also need to be declared and defined with SYCL_EXTERNAL ??? ( we have limited option of change as it is 3rd party code)

2. is there a way to call call_python () function, from inside the kernel function in DPC++ i.e. parallel_for(...)

Regards,

Manoranjan
