OpenCL

Hey. I trying to get my OpenCL project compile in Ubuntu. I have a Core i5 and AMD HD 5660 which are both compatible.

when I execute the following code

cl_int status;
// Retrieve the number of platforms
cl_uint numPlatforms = 0;
status = clGetPlatformIDs(0, NULL, &numPlatforms);
if (status != CL_SUCCESS)
    {
        std::cout << "Error: Getting platforms!" << std::endl;
        std::cin.get();
    }

I get `Error: Getting platforms!`

When I execute 'clinfo', i get : terminate called after throwing an instance of 'cl::Error'

I am using AMD driver 14.4 and SDK 2.9 (it is mentioned in AMD installation guide, that setting up these two file will handle registration of icd and environmental variables)

What am i doing wrong that i cannot get my prog working?

not that I am using Eclipse with correct path to lib (/opt/AMDAPP/lib/x86_64). the program compiles correctly.
