Is it possible that @threads cannot be used in a @generated function? Is there a workaround? @generated function test(::Val{N}) where N quote Base.Threads.@threads for i = 1:$N i^2 end end end test(Val{5}()) # ERROR: generated function body is not pure. this likely mean…

Yes, it is possible and it is true afaik. Make the part that gets @generated be uninvolved with threading and then thread the generated stuff.

@threads and @generated clash?
