Can DPC++ programs be compiled into *.so and called by C?

[di__liu]

Our network equipment wants to use the FPGA card to do some traffic analysis.

Since our protocol stack is implemented in C , we want to use FPGA by calling a DPC ++ function from a C program.

Is this feasible?

Thanks!

Hi,

You should be able to create a .so file from dpcpp programs and called from C. You will need to export the function as "C" to be called by C.
