Re: [PyCUDA] Compiling thrust code in pyCUDA

From within Python, you can make a string containing your C++ code that uses thrust, save it to file, invoke nvcc to build it as a library. Then use ctypes to load it and get the handle to the function. The function can accept a device pointer. Then, suppose you've done some work using PyCUDA. Get the GPU pointer and pass it to the function -- no memory copying occurs here. Call the function letting thrust do its stuff inside there and the output can be a device pointer again or whatever. That's the way I combine the two great libraries PyCUDA and thrust. Tell me if it sounds suitable and I'll send you an example.
