get_local_size

Returns the number of local work-items in the specified dimension.

size_t get_local_size ( uint dimindx)

Description

Returns the number of local work-items specified in dimension identified by dimindx. This value is at most the value given by the local_work_size argument to clEnqueueNDRangeKernel if local_work_size is not NULL; otherwise the OpenCL implementation chooses an appropriate local_work_size value which is returned by this function. If the kernel is executed with a nonuniform work-group size (i.e. the global_work_size values specified to clEnqueueNDRangeKernel are not evenly divisable by the local_work_size values for each dimension), calls to this built-in from some work-groups may return different values than calls to this built-in from other work-groups.

Valid values of dimindx are 0 to get_work_dim() - 1. For other values of dimindx, get_local_size() returns 1.
