What this does is it introduces classes, templates, lambda expressions, function overloads etc to increase parallel programming productivity through generic and meta-programming.<\/p>\n<p>This version also includes SPIR-V 1.2 (Standard Portable Intermediate Representation) which is the first open standard and cross-platform API intermediate language for natively representing parallel compute and graphics. It comes with full support for the new OpenCL C++ kernel language.<\/p>\n<p>WIth all this, C++ is now a first-class kernel language in the OpenCL standard.
