So, I appear to have hit a stumbling block with GCC 3.2 and Boost.Interprocess (the latest from the release branch which I _believe_ to be the latest 1.35). Specifically, when I try to build the following code, I get numerous compilation errors (they appear to be template related).
---------------------- #include
int main() { return 0; }
I have a script which checks whether compiling a single header file works as used by you and started it. It fails indeed also with GCC 3.3 and I even got trunk/boost/interprocess/sync/emulation/named_creation_functor.hpp:38: internal compiler error: segmentation fault together with many other errors and warnings.
Is there any way to get this work under my older GCC version or am I out of luck? Thanks in advance!
I don't know. Nevertheless I attached a patch which fixes at least some warnings and missing include statement. I also noticed once the usage of a wrong namespace. It seems that public header files of Boost.Interprocess are not able to always compile alone and require that the user includes these in a special order. It is probably documented but it would be nice if this could be fixed if possible, e.g. by making some header files private (by moving into detail/). If the current workflow is indeed correct (some of my attempts did'nt improve the situataion, see yourself :-) it would be nice if one could tell me all files which are expected to fail if compiled alone so that I can adapt my tests. PS: It is also a bad idea to use win32 stuff on POSIX systems. Thanks, Jens
