My code for creating context in c++
.........................................................................................................
vector< cl::Platform> platforms;
cl::Platform::get(&platforms); //get available OpenCL platforms (=SDKs)
vector<cl::Device> devices;
platforms[0].getDevices(CL_DEVICE_TYPE_ALL, &devices); //get OpenCL devices from first platform
cl::Context context(devices); //create a context for these devices
...........................................................................................................................
I'm getting
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cl::Error'
what(): clCreateContext
Aborted (core dumped)
on output.
Please, tell what I need to do to fix it.
I've install intel opencl sdk for ubuntu 14.04 64-bit

Hi Gunjal,
Could you try to build and run the following https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/caps-basic and let me know whether you are able to run it and what the output is?
Thanks!

When I downloaded opencl sample codes from this link of intel for opencl 1.2 for linux
https://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-opencl-support/code-samples
and ran one sample code of BitonicSort, it shows this output
Platforms (1):
[0] Intel(R) OpenCL [Selected]
Devices (1):
[0] Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7500 @ 2.93GHz [Selected]
[ ERROR ] Sample application specific error: OpenCL error CL_DEVICE_NOT_AVAILABLE happened in file ../intel_ocl_samples_linux/common/oclobject.cpp at line 447.
Does this mean that my CPU is not compatible?
Or Do I need to install some drivers?
Please suggest me what to do now.

Hi Gunjal,
Your processor was released in Q1'2009 and is not supported by the CPU runtime. I think you will need to upgrade your hardware. One last thing that you could try is to install standalone CPU driver from here https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/opencl-drivers#lin64 - it wasn't designed for Ubuntu, but you maybe able to install it and try it. However, your mileage may vary, since your processor is fairly old.
Sorry that I don't have a more encouraging answer for you.
