How should a very simple Makefile look like for Cuda compiling under linux

Question

I want to compile a very basic hello world level Cuda program under Linux. I have three files:

• the kernel: helloWorld.cu
• main method: helloWorld.cpp

Answer 1

Just in case, here's my variant. I use it to compile CUDA projects on Mac, but I think it will suit Linux too. It requires CUDA SDK.

BINDIR = ./ # places compiled binary in current directory
EXECUTABLE := helloWorld

CCFILES := helloWorld.cpp
CUFILES := helloWorld.cu

# an ugly part - setting rootdir for CUDA SDK makefile
# look for common.mk - I don't know where SDK installs it on Linux -
# and change ROOTDIR accordingly 
ROOTDIR := /Developer/GPU\ Computing/C/common

include $(ROOTDIR)/../common/common.mk
