Developer Tools For Mac



NVIDIA® CUDA Toolkit 11.1 Update 1 no longer supports development or running applications on macOS. While there are no tools which use macOS as a target environment, NVIDIA is making macOS host versions of these tools that you can launch profiling and debugging sessions on supported target platforms.

PL/SQL Developer by IFS Allround Automations is a feature-rich Integrated Development Environment (IDE) that was designed to help users develop units for Oracle databases using PL/SQL programming. Sadly, there is no version of PL/SQL Developer for Mac, but there are some other tools. NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit - Developer Tools for macOS. NVIDIA® CUDA Toolkit 11.0 no longer supports development or running applications on macOS. While there are no tools which use macOS as a target environment, NVIDIA is making macOS host versions of these tools that you can launch profiling and debugging sessions on supported target platforms. Microsoft Edge (Chromium) Developer Tools.; 7 minutes to read; In this article. Microsoft Edge has adopted the Chromium open source project to create better web compatibility and less fragmentation of different underlying web platforms. This change should make it easier for you to build and test your websites in Microsoft Edge.

You may download all these tools here. Note that the Nsight tools provide the ability to download these macOS host versions on their respective product pages.

Please visit each tool's overview page for more information about the tool and its supported target platforms.

The macOS host tools provided are:

  • Nsight Systems - a system profiler and timeline trace tool supporting Pascal and newer GPUs
  • Nsight Compute - a CUDA kernel profiler supporting Volta and new GPUs
  • Visual Profiler - a CUDA kernel and system profiler and timeline trace tool supporting older GPUs (see installation instructions, below)
  • cuda-gdb - a GPU and CPU CUDA application debugger (see installation instructions, below)

        Instructions for installing Visual Profiler on the macOS

          Native macOS profiling is not supported in this release. Remote profiling from a macOS host to other CUDA enabled targets, however, is supported.
          Supported Mac platforms: macOS 10.13
          Steps to install:
          1. Double click .dmg file to mount it and access it in finder.
          2. Drag nvvp folder and drop it to any location you want (say <nvvp_mac>).
            Directory Structure:
              |--nvvp
              |--bin/
              |--lib64/
              |--libnvvp/
          3. Download and install the required version of JDK.
            (Refer to the Notes about JRE Requirements when using Visual Profiler on the macOS section, below)
          Steps to run:
          1. Open terminal.
          2. Change to the bin folder
              > cd <nvvp_mac>/nvvp/bin
          3. Run nvvp script file in command line
              > ./nvvp -vm <path_to_java>
            <path_to_java> should point to the JRE update 151 version of Java (See Notes about JRE Requirements, below).
              For example:
              > ./nvvp -vm /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/zulu-8.jdk/Contents/Home/jre/bin/java

        Notes about JRE Requirements when using Visual Profiler on the macOS

          OpenJDK provides an open-source (and standards compliant) implementation of a Java compliant JVM.
          Binaries are provided by various vendors such as Oracle, Azul Systems (Zulu), Amazon, Red Hat, IBM, etc.
        Mac
          Visual Profiler needs to use an older version of Java, specifically JRE update 151, to work correctly.
          This is currently not offered by Oracle JDK but is provided by Azul Systems (Zulu).
          The Bazel Build project also uses the Zulu builds of OpenJDK.
          Download JDK 8.0.144 to get JRE update 151:
            • Download version: 8u144-b01 (Zulu: 8.23.0.3) .dmg.zip.tar.gz
            • Download version: Zulu 8.23.0.3 (build 1.8.0_144-b01 .zip
