PyCUDA NPP Library Compatability
Question: I've been trying to access the Nvidia Performance Primitives library through
Python, and I found a very useful tutorial last updated in 2011 at this site:
<http://openvidia.sourceforge.net/index.php/OpenVIDIA/python>

However, after downloading the CUDA 6.0 toolkit I can't seem to find any CUDA
".dll" files at all (like those referenced near the start of the tutorial).
Thanks to responses on here, I know the file names should be different to
those in the tutorial, but I can't find any.

Does anybody know an alternative method or command to import the library? Any
help would be greatly appreciated, and if I've missed any key details then
please let me know.

Thanks a lot, Dan

Answer: I just used the cdll.LoadLibrary() command from the ctypes library and called
the "libnppi.so" and "libcudart.so" files. Worked perfectly, thanks for the
help!
