How to be a King of your own Python

Besides best intentions, pre-installed and not correctly (cross-)compiled modules are painful when living on the cutting-dev-edge. Let's start from scratch! :)

The following intro is necessary for a cluster environment where every binary needs to be cross-compiled and $HOME is not mounted on the compute nodes. Furthermore, cross-dependencies and ABI incompatibilities force you to build the full software stack with the same compiler.

Environment Vars

In general, check the crt/host_config.h file to find out which versions are supported. Sometimes it is possible to hack the requirements there to get some newer versions working, too :)

Thrust version can be found in $CUDA_ROOT/include/thrust/version.h.

language: cpp

compiler:
  - gcc

script:
 - mkdir build_tmp &amp;&amp; cd build_tmp

Boost 1.62

List of all libs here. Non header-only libraries (via ./bootstrap.sh --show-libraries):

The Boost libraries requiring separate building and installation are:
    - atomic
    - chrono
    - container
 - context

TypeNames and objects, e.g. const Event event;
close namespaces with a comment: } // namespace itsName
Makros with newlines: align \ symbol to column 80
Describe how PreProcessor Macros are unrolled (excellent example)

/*      < typename T0, ... , typename TN    > */
template<BOOST_PP_ENUM_PARAMS(N, typename T)>
/*                      ( const T0, ... , const TN        ) */
HDINLINE void operator()( BOOST_PP_ENUM_PARAMS(N, const T)) const
