Errata: Incorrect num_devices argument in clCreateContext (ch.3, pg.86) #27

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

The fourth argument of the second call to clGetDeviceIDs() is 
“&devices[0]“, which is technically correct but inconsistent with the third 
argument of clCreateContext(), “devices“.

The real errata is the second argument of clCreateContext(), “size / 
sizeof(cl_device_id)“.  Here “size“ is undefined and the argument should 
instead be “num“.

This is also another errata on the same page.  In the line before the second 
call to clGetDeviceIDs(), “alloca(num)“ should be “alloca(num * 
sizeof(cl_device_id))“.
