Allie for macOS?

Post by Steppenwolf »

Is it possible to compile the newest Allie 0.5 which runs great in TCEC also for Mac?

I know about the Problem with Cuda and mac, but there could be a version with opencl and blas, where CPU and GPC can run simultaneously...

It is possible, but I have never tried it. The makefile's would most likely need to be modified to do it. The only one who has successfully built/used the CPU backend is me I'm afraid.

And where is that makefile - I have looked for it and cannot find it.

The qmake files end in .pro and .pri. Those are the files that will likely need to be modified.
