From what I've read, cygwin supports mmap, and so I figured there was
a chance that boost::interprocess::managed_mapped_file was valid on
windows when compiling with cygwin.
I've built the boost libraries using cygwin with boost_1_39_0, using a
user-config.bjam with:
using gcc : cygwin_4.3.2 : /usr/bin/g++-4 :
<compileflags>-DBOOST_POSIX_API
<compileflags>-DBOOST_POSIX_PATH
;
Under cygwin, I have
g++ 3.4.4
g++-4 4.3.2
I think you can reproduce this with a source file that just includes
I'm getting the following compile error:
g++-4 -DHAS_STDINT_H -I/cygdrive/c/workspaces/cdds_head/stldb_lib
-I/cygdrive/c/c++/boost_1_39_0 -O0 -g3 -Wall -c -fmessage-length=0
-MMD -MP -MF"database.d" -MT"database.d" -o"database.o"
"../database.cpp"
(I also get this with g++)

The above suggests that in detail/os_file_functions.hpp,
mapping_handle_t is being given the windows definition rather than the
posix definition, somehow. However, I've also noticed that if I
#include , I do trip the
#error caused by !defined(BOOST_INTERPROCESS_WINDOWS), so that proves
that it isn't, in which case I don't quite understand where this error
is coming from.
Any help is appreciated.
