[Boost-users] Problem with boost::interprocess::ipc::message_queue

1 Apr 2011

      Hello Everybody,

i used boost::interprocess::ipc::message_queue (boost 1.40) in my 
project. it works perfect. after upgrade from boost 1.40.0 to 1.46.0 i 
do have a problem with the message_queue.

my usage of message_queue:

Receiver:
          message_queue message_queue(open_or_create, 
strQueueName.c_str(), nMessagesNumber, nMessageLength);
/         ....

          bReceiveSucces = message_queue.try_receive(pchPuffer, 
m_nMessageLength, nRecievedSize, nPriority);/

Sender:
         message_queue message_queue(open_only, 
m_strMessageQueueName.c_str());
         message_queue.try_send(strMessage.c_str(), nMessageLength, 
nPriority);

(the Receiver is running before Sender has be started.)

i readed the content in the output windows from Visual Studio 2008 (my 
building envoriment) during start of my application:

the receiver-application loaded these complettly different Dlls (in 
compare with 1.40) and unloaded them repeatly (endless).

if man compare the cruise of the message_queue, is 1.46.0 about 4 times 
slower as 1.40.0.

do somebody know? is it a bug or just the sideeffect from the 
changement? how can i use the message_queue correctly?

thanks a lot for any suggestion

best regards
