+Custom Assertion Handler
+========================
+
+.. note::
+    The availability of the extension can be checked with the ``TBB_EXT_CUSTOM_ASSERTION_HANDLER`` macro defined in
+    ``oneapi/tbb/global_control.h`` and ``oneapi/tbb/version.h`` headers.

+
+Description
+***********
+
+OneTBB provides `internal assertion checking
+<https://oneapi-spec.uxlfoundation.org/specifications/oneapi/v1.4-rev-1/elements/onetbb/source/configuration/enabling_debugging_features>`_
+that prints an error message and terminates the application when errors are detected in oneTBB header files or
+the debug version of the library. The custom assertion handler mechanism extends this by allowing developers to
+implement their own assertion handling functions. The API is semantically similar to the standard library's
+``std::set_terminate`` and ``std::get_terminate`` functions.
+
+API
+***
+
+Header
+------
+
+.. code:: cpp
+
+    #include <oneapi/tbb/global_control.h>
+
+Synopsis
+--------
+
+.. code:: cpp
+
+    #define TBB_EXT_CUSTOM_ASSERTION_HANDLER 202510
+
+    namespace oneapi {
+    namespace tbb {
+    namespace ext {
+        using assertion_handler_type = void(*)(const char* location, int line,
+                                               const char* expression, const char* comment);
+
+        assertion_handler_type set_assertion_handler(assertion_handler_type new_handler) noexcept;
+
+        assertion_handler_type get_assertion_handler() noexcept;
+    }}}
+
+Types
+-----
+
+.. cpp:type:: assertion_handler_type
+
+Type alias for assertion handler function pointer.
+
+Functions
+---------
+
+.. cpp:function:: assertion_handler_type set_assertion_handler(assertion_handler_type new_handler) noexcept
+
+Sets assertion handler and returns its previous value. If ``new_handler`` is ``nullptr``, resets to the default handler.
+
+.. note:: ``new_handler`` must not return. If it does, the behavior is undefined.
+
+.. cpp:function:: assertion_handler_type get_assertion_handler() noexcept
+
+Returns the current assertion handler.
+
+Example
+*******
+
+.. literalinclude:: ./examples/assertion_handler.cpp
+    :language: c++
+    :start-after: /*begin_assertion_handler_example*/
+    :end-before: /*end_assertion_handler_example*/
+
+.. rubric:: See also
