From the boost website it seems that shmem has been accepted but it's been over a year since a new version of boost has been released. Is there a new boost version coming out soon or do I just have to download and build shmem myself?

Haven't tried it myself yet though.

I require two things: 1. The ability to truncate and grow a file. I see the seek/write functions which I'm guessing will take care of my growth needs but what about truncation? 2. The ability to memory map a file. I saw mapped_file which I guess is the one. Simon
