Absolutely. ScalaCL uses a Scala compiler plugin that converts Scala code into OpenCL code (stored in the compiled classes), then at runtime that code is fed to an OpenCL implementation through JavaCL (or rather, through the faster BridJ port of JavaCL). > > What free software implementation of OpenCL exists?

I believe most (if not all) closed source implementations also rely on LLVM, so Clover appears to be on the right track (and I'll try to test it ASAP :-)). Can't wait to see a full open-source OpenCL stack work ! Cheers -- zOlive http://ochafik.com
