Using intel's tbb with qt

Question

I've qt 4.8 with gcc 4.6.1 and I'd like to use intel's tbb in my project. What steps am I suppose to do in order to do that?

Answer 1

• Install tbb (including headers and libs)
• Include the headers where necessary
• Use the library where appropriate.
• Link with tbb

Answer 2

First of all, you have to build TBB dll files for MingW using this command

mingw32-make compiler=gcc arch=ia32 runtime=mingw tbb

taken from here in the directory where the main TBB Makefile is.
