The host code in the Vitis core development kit follows the OpenCL programming paradigm. To setup the runtime environment properly, the host application needs to initialize the standard OpenCL structures: target platform, devices, context, command queue, and program.
Tip: The host code examples and API
commands used in this document follow the OpenCL C
API. However, XRT also supports the OpenCL C++
wrapper API, and many of the Vitis Examples are written using the C++ API. For more
information on this C++ wrapper API, refer to https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenCL/specs/opencl-cplusplus-1.2.pdf.
