CUDA support? about premake-core

[brightening-eyes]

maybe for now my best bet is to use one of those modules and see which one suits my needs then write one based on it and contribute back.

@Jarod42 : You have motivated me to submit a PR (#2183).

Didn't test those repositories, but those are modules to use to extends premake with extra support.
Those are not listed in https://premake.github.io/community/modules/ :-/

To use modules, see https://premake.github.io/docs/Using-Modules/

@Jarod42
Actually I didn't ment to use it like this, I ment to have premake support cuda like c/c++ and d
the thing is, when a toolset like clang supports cuda compilation, why not to detect it like C++ and then compile and link it?

[Jarod42]

d support would probably disappears "soon", only supported by one deprecated generator (gmake).

why not to detect it like [..] ?

Resources are limited... :-/

Hi, I am the author of one of those CUDA extensions. I tend to keep it up-to-date based on what people file as issues, but if there is anything you need, you can create an issue, and I will solve it if I know how.

On the matter of adding to the community modules, I do not know what the threshold for usefulness is, before modules are added to that page, otherwise I would put in a PR for it to be added.

I personally think that any modules might be added to that page (there are still readme.md or other way to state status/limitation of the module).
