C++ AMP sample projects for download

  • Article

For some developers, reading code (that fully compiles in a Visual Studio project) is a much better way to learn an API than reading documentation about an API. If that describes you, then you'll be happy to know that in between our blog posts explaining various aspects of C++ AMP, we also post blog entries that have ZIP files attached with VS 2012 projects, representing C++ AMP samples. This blog post will serve as a table of contents (toc) for all such blog posts. We'll come back and update this toc whenever we post a new entry with a VS project attached - enjoy!

This is our current list of public VS 2012 projects using C++ AMP - follow the link (Ctrl+Click) to open a new web page and then browse to the bottom of the new page to download the ZIP file:

Note 1: As we release new versions of Visual Studio and C++ AMP, we'll try to go back and update the ZIP file of each sample to be compatible with the latest Visual Studio and C++ AMP release, i.e. like we did with the Beta.

Note 2: If you have written your own C++ AMP sample, let us know and we can host it on our blog and list it here.

Note 3: For any questions with any of the samples, please post your question on the specific sample page.
