Hello Andreas,

Thanks for the help. I have eventually managed! In short I...

- defined BOOST_ASIO_DISABLE_THREADS both while building Boost, and in the application which used it
- implemented the atomic primitives using code from the gcc headers

All working now!

thanks,

Jayne.

Alright, I looked into how I did when I faced the problem
(my previous reply was a fast shot).

I put the following #defines in the user config header
(boost/config/user.hpp):

#define BOOST_ASIO_DISABLE_FENCED_BLOCK
#define BOOST_SP_USE_SPINLOCK

This did the trick for me.
>From what I recall, the problem lies with shared_ptr since
the implementation tries to use gcc builtins for the locking mechanism
it needs for refcounting but which are not implemented on every platform
(in my case it was Coldfire/m68k).

Regards
