## Members

### `device(program: &'a readonly Program): Device`

Return the device that owns `program`.

### `compile(device: &'a readonly Device, source: ProgramSource, options?: ProgramOptions | undefined): Result<Program, ComputeError>`

Compile `source` for `device`.

### `build(device: &'a readonly Device, source: ProgramSource, options?: ProgramOptions | undefined): ProgramReport`

Compile `source` for `device` and return diagnostics.

### `kernel(program: &'a readonly Program, name: string): Result<Kernel, ComputeError>`

Return a kernel entry point by name.

### `argumentValue<T>(value: T): KernelArgument`

Encode `value` as one kernel argument.

### `argumentBuffer<T>(buffer: Buffer<T>): KernelArgument`

Encode `buffer` as one kernel argument.

### `argumentBytes(bytes: [uint8]): KernelArgument`

Encode raw argument bytes.

### `kernelProgram(kernel: &'a readonly Kernel): Program`
