Helper Functions for Expressing Graphs
Helper functions are intended to make creation of the flow graphs less verbose.
Description
This feature adds make_edges, make_node_set, follows and precedes functions to oneapi::tbb::flow namespace. These functions simplify the process of building flow graphs by allowing to gather nodes into sets and connect them to other nodes in the graph.
API
Example
Consider the graph depicted below.
In the examples below, C++17 Class Template Argument Deduction is used to avoid template parameter specification where possible.
Regular API
#include <oneapi/tbb/flow_graph.h> int main() { using namespace oneapi::tbb::flow; graph g; broadcast_node<int> input(g); function_node doubler(g, unlimited, [](const int& v) { return 2 * v; }); function_node squarer(g, unlimited, [](const int&) { return v * v; }); function_node cuber(g, unlimited, [](const int& v) { return v * v * v; }); join_node<std::tuple<int, int, int>> join(g); int sum = 0; function_node summer(g, serial, [&](const std::tuple<int, int, int>& v) { int sub_sum = std::get<0>(v) + std::get<1>(v) + std::get<2>(v); sum += sub_sum; return sub_sum; }); make_edge(input, doubler); make_edge(input, squarer); make_edge(input, cuber); make_edge(doubler, std::get<0>(join.input_ports())); make_edge(squarer, std::get<1>(join.input_ports())); make_edge(cuber, std::get<2>(join.input_ports())); make_edge(join, summer); for (int i = 1; i <= 10; ++i) { input.try_put(i); } g.wait_for_all(); }
