hello to all,
I was giving a look at the OpenCL soft-body solver SolvePositions.cl,
and I noticed the last two lines:
g_vertexPositions[node0] = (float4)(position0, 0.f);
g_vertexPositions[node1] = (float4)(position1, 0.f);
Am I wrong or they could give a concurrent write access?
Or is OpenCL preventing this?
Best regards
Francesco

Re: concurrent write access in OpenCL kernel
The kernel will be processed over many work items in parallel, writing to different g_vertexPositions.
The batching makes sure that there are no work items that share the same node.
Thanks,
Erwin

Hello and thanks for your reply,
you're right...I didn't notice the generateBatches method
