Install Caffe with Visual Studio 2015 and Cuda 8.0 on windows

[Ling]

Hi, 

Is there anybody ever install Caffe on Window 10 with installing Visual Studio 2015 and Cuda 8.0 ?

[Daniel Moodie]

I've done it on Windows 7 with VS2015 and CUDA 8.0.

Dependencies:

CMake version of caffe compatible with windows:

Thank you!

I suggest to use the windows branch from the official caffe repository https://github.com/BVLC/caffe/tree/windows . I can confirm that it does work with vs 2015 and cuda 8, it however lacks the matlab interface.

Hi can anyone list steps to compile caffe for windows?

I followed step by step guide on https://github.com/BVLC/caffe/tree/windows, with different options and compiled but couldn't get caffe.exe and couldn't import caffe in python

git clone https://github.com/BVLC/caffe.git
cd caffe
git checkout windows
:: Added path to Python directory on my machine and added -DCUDNN_ROOT=C:\Program Files\NVIDIA GPU Computing Toolkit\CUDA\v8.0 ^ where I have copied cuDNN in CUDA directory.
scripts\build_win.cmd 

call build\libraries\prependpath.bat

% It compiles successfully but I cannot see anything caffe.exe anywhere and can't import in python

I even tried to compile using Visual Studio but didn't work.

I am trying to use Caffe in my own C++ project which resembles the cpp_classification example.  When I include caffe.hpp I encountered many errors related to not finding include files but seemed to be able to get through those by modifying my project include directories (I needed things in caffe/include/caffe , caffe/build/include/caffe/proto, caffe/build/libraries/include and  caffe\build\libraries\include\boost-1_61 .  

However, now I get a ton of build errors in proto/caffe.pb.h which is included by common.hpp which is included by caffe.hpp (the one and only caffe related include I'm using in my code).  The first of the errors is on this line...

float min() const;

which gives an error "invalid type for a bit field"

Any ideas?

Hi Daniel,

I am trying to build this with VS2013, and I am having some trouble with the leveldb that I have, I think maybe is not the right version. Could you post a link to the source of the correct version of leveldb so that I can build it in vs2013? thanks

I found the version is 1.2, is there any clean way to build it in windows?

Thanks,

[Liila Torabi]

I can now compile it in windows, but my version is a bit different from yours, although they are both 1.2. Would you please post a link to you leveldb source

Thanks,

Liila

Hi

I have followed your instructions from youtube tutorial on my windows10 caffee and cuda 7. but its failed to compile on my system. Any suggestions to compile it for matlab wrapper.

kind regards

I solve this problem using NOMINMAX flag in project. This flag prevents using min definition in 'minwindef.h' file.

I ran into exact same issue. Have you figure out the problem?

[Vincent Wen]

I figured out the problem. Apparently caffe.exe exists in build\tools\Release\caffe.exe
