Re: [boost] Does lock-free boost::shared_ptr<T> implementation exist?

I'm trying to find a production quality lock free reference counted pointer implementation and boost::shared_ptr seems promising. However boost::atomic_is_lock_free(shared_ptr) returns false on Windows. I'm going to try on SUSE linux soon.

while the reference counting itself is lock-free, boost::atomic<boost::shared_ptr> requires dcas support to be lockfree ... hth, tim -- tim@klingt.org http://tim.klingt.org I must say I find television very educational.
