Is TBB 2020 binary Compatible to 2019

I know that TBB 2020 deprecates a bunch of API in favor of standard C++ etc.  My question is despite this deprecation, are binaries built with TBB 2019 Update 6 (for example) able to run on TBB 2020 or is that binariy compatibility broken?

At this time we are maintaining backwards binary compatibility for Intel® Threading Building Blocks (TBB). Keep in mind that there is a different version branch of TBB called oneTBB which is part of our oneAPI implementation. TBB and oneTBB are NOT guaranteed to be binary compatible with each other.


If you haven't already, please visit https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/tbb-revamp.html to see information about the revamp. The functionality deprecated in TBB will be removed in oneTBB.


I am going to close the support on this thread. Any further discussion will be considered community only, and as such will not be monitored by Intel support.
