Hi: Has anyone written or does anyone know of a thread safe queue that uses boost to allow it to be cross platform? Cheers Sean.

What functionality are you looking for exactly? There is a review in process for the lock-free data structures library, which includes a lock-free fifo. Otherwise, I think your best bet is to wrap accesses to your std::queue with locks on a boost::mutex. If you want a priority_queue, something like the latter is probably your only option. Brian
HI Brian: The lock free stuff should do the trick, I'll take a luck!

Hi Sean, recently I wrote some code that you might be looking for, here it is: https://github.com/romanek-adam/boost_locking_queue it's based on the following article on implementing a thread-safe queue: http://www.justsoftwaresolutions.co.uk/threading/implementing-a-thread-safe-... it also uses some concepts from python's Queue class.
