A node that broadcasts messages received at its input ports to all of its successors. Each input port pi is a receiver<Ti>. The messages are broadcast individually as they are received at each port. The output message type is a struct that contains an index number that identifies the port on which the message arrived and a tuple of the input types where the value is stored.
template<typename InputTuple> class or_node;
#define TBB_PREVIEW_GRAPH_NODES 1 #include "tbb/flow_graph.h"
An or_node is a graph_node and sender< or_node<InputTyple>::output_type >. It contains a tuple of input ports, each of which is a receiver<Ti> for each of the T0 .. TN in InputTuple. It supports multiple input receivers with distinct types and broadcasts each received message to all of its successors. Unlike a join_node, each message is broadcast individually to all successors of the or_node as it arrives at an input port. The incoming messages are wrapped in a struct that contains the index of the port number on which the message arrived and a tuple of the input types where the received value is stored.
The function template input_port described in 6.19 simplifies the syntax for getting a reference to a specific input port.
Rejection of messages by successors of the or_node is handled using the protocol in the Message Passing Protocol, see link below. The input ports never reject incoming messages.
InputTuple must be a flow::tuple<T0,T1,...> where each element is copy-constructible and assignable.
#include<cstdio>
#define TBB_PREVIEW_GRAPH_NODES 1
#include "tbb/flow_graph.h"
using namespace tbb::flow;
int main() {
graph g;
function_node<int,int> f1( g, unlimited,
[](const int &i) { return 2*i; } );
function_node<float,float> f2( g, unlimited,
[](const float &f) { return f/2; } );
or_node< flow::tuple<int,float> > my_or_type;
my_or_type o(g);
function_node< my_or_type::output_type >
f3( g, unlimited,
[]( const my_or_type::output_type &v ) {
if (v.indx == 0) {
printf("Received an int %d\n",
std::get<0>(v.result));
} else {
printf("Received a float %f\n",
std::get<1>(v.result));
}
}
);
make_edge( f1, input_port<0>(o) );
make_edge( f2, input_port<1>(o) );
make_edge( o, f3 );
f1.try_put( 3 );
f2.try_put( 3 );
g.wait_for_all();
return 0;
}
In the example above, three function_node objects are created: f1 multiplies an int i by 2, f2 divides a float f by 2, and f3 prints the values from f1 and f2 as they arrive. The or_node j wraps the output of f1 and f2 and forwards each result to f3. This example is purely a syntactic demonstration since there is very little work in the nodes.

| Member | Description |
|---|---|
| or_node(graph &g) |
Constructs an or_node that belongs to the graph g. |
| or_node( const or_node &src ) |
Constructs an or_node. The list of predecessors, messages in the input ports, and successors are NOT copied. |
| input_ports_type& input_ports() |
Returns: A flow::tuple of receivers. Each element inherits from tbb::receiver<T> where T is the type of message expected at that input. Each tuple element can be used like any other flow::receiver<T>. |
| bool register_successor( successor_type & r ) |
Adds r to the set of successors. Returns: true. |
| bool remove_successor( successor_type & r ) |
Removes r from the set of successors. Returns: true. |
| bool try_get( output_type &v ) |
An or_node contains no buffering and therefore does not support gets. Returns: false. |
| bool try_reserve( output_type & ) |
An or_node contains no buffering and therefore cannot be reserved. Returns: false. |
| bool try_release( ) |
An or_node contains no buffering and therefore cannot be reserved. Returns: false. |
| bool try_consume( ) |
An or_node contains no buffering and therefore cannot be reserved. Returns: false. |
