Problems running Matlab examples of MEX + Cuda

I am trying to execute a mex file using Nvidia NVCC compiler. I created a .cu and a .h file, as follows:

addVectors.h file:

#ifndef __ADDVECTORS_H__
#define __ADDVECTORS_H__

extern void addVectors(float *A, float *B, float *C, int size);

#endif __ADDVECTORS_H__

addVectors.cu file:

#include "AddVectors.h"
#include "mex.h"

__global__ void addVectorsMask(float *A, float *B, float *C, int size)
{
    int ii = blockIdx.x;
    if (ii >=size)
        return;
    C[ii] = A[ii] + B[ii];
}

void addVectors(floar *A, float *B, float *C, int size)

{
    float *devA = 0;
    float *devB = 0;
    float *devC = 0;

      cudaMalloc((void**)&devA, sizeof(float)*size);
      cudaMalloc((void**)&devB, sizeof(float)*size);
      cudaMalloc((void**)&devC, sizeof(float)*size);

      cudaMemcpy(devA, A, sizeof(float)*size, cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);
      cudaMemcpy(devB, B, sizeof(float)*size, cudaMemcpyHostToDevice);

      addVectorMask<<<size, 1>>>(devA, devB, devC, size);

      cudaMemcpu(C, devC, sizeof(float)*size, cudaMemcpyDeviceToHost);

      cudaFree(devA);
      cudaFree(devB);
      cudaFree(devC);

}

In order to configure the compilers, I followed this tutorial:

https://scivision.co/matlab-r2013a-mex-on-ubuntu-13-04-64-bit/

When I try to compile it, using the command:

system('nvcc -c AddVectors.cu')

I get the following messages:

In file included from AddVectors.cu:1:
AddVectors.h:6: warning: extra tokens at end of #endif directive
AddVectors.cu:2: fatal error: mex.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

ans =

       1

I tried to compile using the verbose mode (-v option) and I got this:

I also tried the Mathworks example:

http://www.mathworks.com/help/distcomp/run-mex-functions-containing-cuda-code.html#btrgjg_

But I always get the SAME error message...!

I am using CUDA 5.5, Matlab R2013a and Ubuntu 14.04. What should I do? I looked for some answers, but none of them seem to solve my problem. Any help is appreciated.

Can anyone on Mathworks please help me? It seems that it is a quite recurrent question in this forum and still no answer!

[Walter Roberson]

You probably need a -I to add a different include directory, the one that contains mex.h

Answer 1

[Steven Lord]

Just reading the text of the first compiler warning, it looks like the compiler objects to the _ADDVECTORS_H_ after the #endif in addVectors.h. What happens if you replace that with this?

 #endif

Also check the case of your #include; you #include "AddVectors.h" but your post calls that file addVectors.h.

[Gabriel]

Ok, that solved the first warning, but still, it won't compile:

AddVectors.cu:2: fatal error: mex.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

[BenImage]

did you ever figure this out? I'm shocked that I can't find someone clearly addressing how to resolve this "mex.h" missing error.....
