AttributeError: module 'torch' has no attribute 'device'

I'm 99% sure this is because I didn't upgrade pytorch from 0.31 to 0.4 however I can't upgrade pytorch for now.

I need to translate .device (0.4) to something that works in 0.31.

I check the migration document however it doesn't provide how I can convert torch.device in retrospect. Please help!

Solution

  • torch.cuda.device() is a context manager.

    torch.cuda.set_device(0)
# On device 0
with torch.cuda.device(1):
    print("Inside device is 1")    
    # On device 1
print("Outside is still 0")
# On device 0

    And the above works from 0.2 version.
