bullet: OpenCL/OpenCL.h: No such file or directory

Description

Trying to install bullet 2.77-2218 on Mac OS X 10.5.8 ppc I get

error: OpenCL/OpenCL.h: No such file or directory

There was no problem installing bullet 2.75 on this Mac.

OpenCL is a new feature of Snow Leopard; if bullet now requires OpenCL that makes it incompatible with Leopard and Tiger.

Second, the header is actually opencl.h, not OpenCL.h, so this will fail on Snow Leopard too if the file system is case sensitive.

OpenCL header case fixed in r71845.

AFAIK, OpenCL is optional depependency. MiniCL (part of bullet) implements some subset of OpenCL using CPU.

Please, try to disable hardware OpenCL (see attached patch).

bullet does now build on my Leopard Mac with this patch. MiniCL still gets built, but nothing gets linked to it, and I don't know if bullet works. I'm guessing this patch would only be appropriate for 10.5 and earlier; using it on 10.6 and up is probably a problem, right?

Currently OpenCL used only for soft cloth simulations. Soft cloth can be simulated in software, MiniCL (software OpenCL), Apple hardware OpenCL, nVidia hardware OpenCL and AMD hardware OpenCL. You can optionally disable hardware OpenCL on unsupported platform and still get working bullet libs.

You can check this :

  1. Enable demos in Portfile: -DBUILD_DEMOS=ON -DBUILD_MINICL_OPENCL_DEMOS=ON
  2. Demos/OpenCLClothDemo/CMakeLists.txt: remove all lines, except SUBDIRS( MiniCL )
  3. src/BulletMultiThreaded/GpuSoftBodySolvers/OpenCL/CMakeLists.txt: remove all lines, except SUBDIRS( MiniCL )
  4. src/BulletMultiThreaded/GpuSoftBodySolvers/CMakeLists.txt leave untouched

Build port and then examine executable in Demos/OpenCLClothDemo/MiniCL/.

I'm guessing we have to disable hardware implementations for 10.5 and earlier. For 10.6 such variant must be optional.

I filed a bug against bullet itself (http://code.google.com/p/bullet/issues/detail?id=480) and attached a patch there to fix the issue. I've attached it here as well. It would be great if you could add it to your port.

Resolution: fixed

Doesn't look like there's any reason for this to still be open.

Replying to stromnov:

OpenCL header case fixed in r71845.

AFAIK, OpenCL is optional depependency. MiniCL (part of bullet) implements some subset of OpenCL using CPU.

Please, try to disable hardware OpenCL (see attached patch).

By the way, there is no port for MiniCL, right? (Or any version of OpenCL.)
