Re: [Boost-users] [Interprocess] Different shared memory locations in Windows

I'm not sure what the correct answer here is, but I have some ideas:

-- There is a SHGetFolderPath() function that can return the known folder paths. You could give ask it for CSIDL_COMMON_APPDATA to get a common application data folder. Similar to what was happening with the registry key, but I think an API call is a little nicer and maybe safer.
