tbb-devel

library2023.0.0pypypiunverified

Intel oneAPI Threading Building Blocks (oneTBB) is a C++ library for parallel programming. The tbb-devel package provides Python bindings (via pybind11) to access TBB's parallel algorithms, concurrent containers, task scheduling, and flow graphs. Version 2023.0.0 is the latest stable release. Releases occur roughly yearly.

parallel_for

✓ from tbb import parallel_for

✗ from tbb import parallel_for

Demonstrates a simple parallel_for call using the tbb module.

import os from tbb import parallel_for def square(x): return x * x # Parallel for loop results = parallel_for(range(10), square) print(list(results))

Debug

Known issues

breakingThe tbb-devel package provides Python bindings for oneTBB, but the C++ library has breaking changes between major versions (e.g., TBB 2020 to 2021). The Python API may not be fully compatible across versions.

fix

Ensure your code is tested with the specific tbb-devel version you deploy. Check the oneTBB release notes for C++ API changes.

affects: all

deprecatedThe tbb::task_scheduler_init class is deprecated. Use tbb::global_control to set the number of threads.

fix

Replace task_scheduler_init with global_control. In Python: from tbb import global_control; ctrl = global_control(global_control.max_allowed_parallelism, nthreads)

affects: >=2021.0

gotchaThe Python tbb module is a thin wrapper around C++ TBB. It may not expose all C++ features, and some functions (e.g., flow graph) have limited or no Python bindings.

fix

Check the tbb module's exported symbols via dir(tbb) or refer to the C++ oneTBB documentation for available features.
