Emit a #warning when a host fallback path is encountered #145

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

We currently silently dispatch host fallback paths for a subset of 
device_vector functionality.  These can easily cause bottlenecks.  We should 
notify the user when this happens with an optional warning.

I don't know of a way to do this -- there is no static_warn analogous to 
static_assert.  Using #warning would emit a warning simply by #including this 
header, whether or not the fallback code path was actually instantiated.

implementing the enhancement in issue #56 would mitigate this problem to a 
large degree
