C# Class ManagedCuda.CudaFFT.cufftHandle

Creates only an opaque handle, and allocates small data structures on the host. The cufftMakePlan*() calls actually do the plan generation. It is recommended that cufftSet*() calls, such as cufftSetCompatibilityMode(), that may require a plan to be broken down and re-generated, should be made after cufftCreate() and before one of the cufftMakePlan*() calls.

SetAutoAllocation() indicates that the caller intends to allocate and manage work areas for plans that have been generated. CUFFT default behavior is to allocate the work area at plan generation time. If cufftSetAutoAllocation() has been called with autoAllocate set to "false" prior to one of the cufftMakePlan*() calls, CUFFT does not allocate the work area. This is the preferred sequence for callers wishing to manage work area allocation.

configures the layout of CUFFT output in FFTW‐compatible modes. When FFTW compatibility is desired, it can be configured for padding only, for asymmetric complex inputs only, or to be fully compatible.

Associates a CUDA stream with a CUFFT plan. All kernel launches made during plan execution are now done through the associated stream, enabling overlap with activity in other streams (for example, data copying). The association remains until the plan is destroyed or the stream is changed with another call to SetStream().

SetWorkArea() overrides the work area pointer associated with a plan. If the work area was auto-allocated, CUFFT frees the auto-allocated space. The cufftExecute*() calls assume that the work area pointer is valid and that it points to a contiguous region in device memory that does not overlap with any other work area. If this is not the case, results are indeterminate.
