ComputeCapability would be better as an open enumeration if you expect software to be able to use it as a selection key. Hi Stephen
The ComputeCapability in the AcceleratorEnvironment is an attribute strongly recommended for Nvidia GPUs descriptions: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA#GPUs_supported It's not properly a version number, we may say that is a "category number" or "category ID", it can't be an enumeration. We discussed a lot in the past about that attribute but it seems to me that we still don't have a clear idea. BTW, since the list of comments for that attribute is getting very long I reset it and put a short description. -- ---------------------- Ing.
