Thanks. I'll put up with APR (apache portable runtime) until I see Interprocess completed. Simon

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?

Shmem was accepted and many changes were requested. As a result, I'm developing Boost.Interprocess, that will be the official Boost version of the library. Shmem is in a bug fix state. You can download it from Boost.Vault and Sandbox CVS. I plan to upload a new version of Boost.Interprocess in a week to Boost CVS and Vault. Interprocess has many breaking changes from Shmem, but essentially will allow the same features as Shmem plus new interprocess communication mechanisms. I work the faster I can (lately, not very fast, I admit). Interprocess won't appear officially until Boost 1.35.

Ion

Hi,

I have tried everything so far and maybe it's the sun, the heat or whatever but I can't get flat_multimap from shmem to insert a value.

I have:

typedef boost::shmem::flat_multimap MyMultiMap;

and I have tried an insert with a typedef std::pair multiMapNodeType; as an argument to 'insert' without success.

Can someone tell me what sould I put as an argument to the call to 'insert' for the above declaration of a flat_multimap?

Can you give a small example to know what myHashEqual and myShmNodePtrAllocator are defined? flat_multimap is an ordered container (just like std::map) so a the ordering function should be a LessThan like ordering function and not an Equality function. Can you write a small test case just creating a multimap and inserting a value that shows those typedefs? Regards, Ion

Hi Berenguer, flat_map has the same interface as map so if you have more problems, try to make an small example using map. Regarding flat_xxx family: The comparison function must compare keys, not mapped types: std::less The allocator must allocate pairs: allocator , segment_manager> if you were using boost::shmem::map the stored objects are const keys so you would need allocator , segment_manager> This is your modified example. Compiles fine in Visual 7.1. I left commented the code I've changed: #include <vector> #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include #include class myShmNode { //whatever }; typedef boost::shmem::allocator /*myShmNode **/ ,boost::shmem::named_shared_object::segment_manager> myShmNodePtrAllocator; typedef boost::shmem::flat_multimap std::size_t/*myShmNode**/ ,myShmNodePtrAllocator> MyMultiMap; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { boost::shmem::named_shared_object segment; segment.create( "/MySharedMemory", 1048576 ); //Initialize shared memory STL-compatible allocators myShmNodePtrAllocator nodesPtrsAllocator(segment.get_segment_manager()); std::less comparator2; MyMultiMap* ptrsMultiMap = segment.construct<MyMultiMap> (boost::shmem::anonymous_instance) (comparator2,nodesPtrsAllocator); typedef std::pair multiMapNodeType; multiMapNodeType multiMapNode; myShmNode* myNode; multiMapNode.first = 1; multiMapNode.second = myNode; ptrsMultiMap->insert(multiMapNode); }
