cudaError_t cudaMemcpyToSymbol ( const char *  symbol,
const void *  src,
size_t  count,
size_t  offset = 0,
enum cudaMemcpyKind  kind = cudaMemcpyHostToDevice 
)

Copies count bytes from the memory area pointed to by src to the memory area pointed to by offset bytes from the start of symbol symbol. The memory areas may not overlap. symbol is a variable that resides in global or constant memory space. kind can be either cudaMemcpyHostToDevice or cudaMemcpyDeviceToDevice.

Parameters:
symbol - Symbol destination on device
src - Source memory address
count - Size in bytes to copy
offset - Offset from start of symbol in bytes
kind - Type of transfer
Returns:
cudaSuccess, cudaErrorInvalidValue, cudaErrorInvalidSymbol, cudaErrorInvalidDevicePointer, cudaErrorInvalidMemcpyDirection
Note:
The symbol paramater may also be a character string, naming a variable that resides in global or constant memory space, however this usage is deprecated as of CUDA 4.1.

Note that this function may also return error codes from previous, asynchronous launches.

This function exhibits synchronous behavior for most use cases.
