Debug Versus Release

A few features should be used only when debugging. They won’t cause production versions to fail, but they’ll severely diminish the value of using Threading Building Blocks. Here is a list of things that should not be used in production code:

  • Do not set the number of threads with task_scheduler_init. Let the setting be automatic (default) so that the program will run on a wide variety of hardware and make the best use of the processors.

  • Leave TBB_DO_ASSERT undefined or set to zero.

  • Leave TBB_DO_THREADING_TOOLS undefined or set to zero.
