fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'CL/cl.h'

Question

I read all the solutions provided in this website in order to solve this problem, but it still exits. When I run this command in cmd in windows 10 C:\pyopencl-2016.2.1>setup.py install, this error will be shown:

c:\pyopencl-2016.2.1\src\c_wrapper\clinfo_ext.h(10) : fatal error C1083: 

Cannot open include file: 'CL/cl.h': No such file or directory
error: command 'C:\\Users\\Neda\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Common\\Microsoft\\Visual C++ for Python\\9.0\\VC\\Bin\\amd64\\cl.exe' failed with exit status 2

Also, there is no cl.exe and CL/ in the paths mentioned above. I would really appreciate your attention.

EDITED: I also ran this command in cmd Command "pip install --global-option=build_ext --global-option="-DHAVE_GL=1" pyopencl and the problem was the same:

c:\users\neda\appdata\local\temp\pip-build-ugbqq9\pyopencl\src\c_wrapper\clinfo_ext.h(10) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'CL/cl.h': No such file or directory

Answer 1

Seems you don't have any OpenCL SDK installed.

There are different SDK from different providers:

• NVIDIA – CUDA Toolkit
• AMD – AMD APP SDK
• Intel - OpenCL SDK

At first, install OpenCL SDK, and don't forget to setup right environment variable INCLUDE to point to your OpenCL include library (for example: INCLUDE = C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\OpenCL SDK\6.3\include).
