NX Failure to start a C++ NXOpen program in NX1926 environment

When trying to run NXOpen C++ code on a machine that also has Creo installed, the NXOpen program will fail with the following error: 
unresolved reference __TBB_register_thread_start_function_wrapper 

Solution

A workaround is to modify the system %PATH% variable, so that the %UGII_BASE_DIR%\NXBIN directory appears before the Creo directory, preferably at the beginning of the %PATH% variable.


Change this variable: 
Path=C:\PROGRA~1\Siemens\NX1926\ugii;... ; C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 4.0\M090\Common Files\x86e_win64\obj;C:\Program Files\Siemens\NX1926\NXBIN


So that the order is:


Path=C:\PROGRA~1\Siemens\NX1926\nxbin;C:\PROGRA~1\Siemens\NX1926\ugii;... C:\Program Files\PTC\Creo 4.0\M090\Common Files\x86e_win64\obj;...


and the NXOpen program should run normally.
