<h1 class="topictitle1">Appendix B Mixing With Other Threading Packages</h1>

<div><p>Intel&reg; Threading Building Blocks (Intel&reg; TBB) can be mixed with other threading packages. No special effort is required to use any part of Intel&reg; TBB with other threading packages.<a href="#ftn9"><sup><sup>[9]</sup></sup></a></p>
<p>Here is an example that parallelizes an outer loop with OpenMP and an inner loop with Intel&reg; Threading Building Blocks. </p>

<pre>int M, N;
&nbsp;
struct InnerBody {
    ...
};
&nbsp;
void TBB_NestedInOpenMP() {
#pragma omp parallel
    {
#pragma omp for
        for( int i=0; i&lt;M; ++ ) {
            parallel_for( blocked_range&lt;int&gt;(0,N,10), InnerBody(i) );
        }
    }
}</pre>
<p>The details of <samp class="codeph">InnerBody</samp> are omitted for brevity. The <samp class="codeph">#pragma omp parallel</samp> causes the OpenMP to create a team of threads, and each thread executes the block statement associated with the pragma. The <samp class="codeph">#pragma omp for</samp> indicates that the compiler should use the previously created thread team to execute the loop in parallel.</p>
<p>Here is the same example written using POSIX* Threads.</p>

<pre>int M, N;
&nbsp;
struct InnerBody {
    ...
};
&nbsp;
void* OuterLoopIteration( void* args ) {
    int i = (int)args;
    parallel_for( blocked_range&lt;int&gt;(0,N,10), InnerBody(i) );
}
&nbsp;
void TBB_NestedInPThreads() {
    std::vector&lt;pthread_t&gt; id( M );
    // Create thread for each outer loop iteration
    for( int i=0; i&lt;M; ++i )
        pthread_create( &amp;id[i], NULL, OuterLoopIteration, NULL );
    // Wait for outer loop threads to finish
    for( int i=0; i&lt;M; ++i )
        pthread_join( &amp;id[i], NULL );
} </pre>

<p class="tfootnote"><a id="ftn9"><sup>[9]</sup></a>   Intel&reg; TBB 2.1 required creating a <samp class="codeph">tbb::task_scheduler_init</samp> object in each thread that invokes the task scheduler or a parallel algorithm. Intel&reg; TBB 2.2 and later versions automatically create the task scheduler.  </p>
