Notes:
- The code has been tested using HCC tagged version preview_1.0.17236.
- For convenience, a script that pulls the correct HIP code from github and builds it as well has been added to the release. To use it, simply download the script
build_hcc_and_hip.shto an empty folder on your development machine and run./build_hcc_and_hip.sh. - Alternatively you can download the HCC and HIP debian packages for Ubuntu 16.04 from the corresponding project release tags.
