• Various improvements in source code, tests, and makefiles.

Bugs fixed:

• Added dynamic replacement of _aligned_msize() previously missed.
• Fixed task_group::run_and_wait() to throw invalid_multiple_scheduling exception if the specified task handle is already scheduled.

Open-source contributions integrated:

• A fix for ARM* processors by Steve Capper.
• Improvements in std::swap calls by Robert Maynard.

You can download Intel TBB 4.2 update 3 from commercial and open source sites.

I disagree with the fix for ARM: this should be just the ISB instruction, not a full fence. The thing with swap seems the rather unfortunate forced outcome of a strange and in my opinion indefensible quirk about C++ namespaces.

I can't find "vs12_ui" at bin,lib dir.
this update does NOT support StoreApp? or combined with "vs12"?

[Vladimir_P_1234567890]

hi episteme,

binaries for storeapp applications are located in vc11_ui. If you use visual studio 2013 you can use debug libraries from vc12 folder for debug config and release vc11_ui for release config. Do you need storeapp-specific libraries for visual studio 2013?

this means to build StoreApp for Win8.1 by vc12, use TBB-libs in vc_11?

"vc11_ui" libraries. It is next to vc11 folder
