Can I create Boost multi_array in shared memory using Boost.InterProcess..? Can some one explain as to how this can be done.?
I tried providing the Boost InterProcess Allocator to the Boost multi_array but it gives the expected compiler error of casting an offset<ptr> to T* , when the multi_array tries to convert return type of the allocator allocate function(which is an offset<ptr>) to T*.
Can this problem be overcome by writing a custom stl compatible allocator wrapper over the interprocess allocator?

MultiArray is not compatible with Boost.Interprocess. I've never tried that, so I can give any clue on how to solve this. It would interesting to make MultiArray compatible with non-raw pointers, but this is a issue MultiArray authors should address if they find it useful.
