hi oliver, i just saw, that you checked in a lockfree fifo implementation to the boost sandbox. it looks like an implementation of the michael/scott queue, isn't it? if so, i suppose, you are missing a thread-safe memory reclamation mechanism ... some time ago, i wrote a boost-style implementation of this data structure, not sure, if you came across it [1] ... maybe it would make sense to join our efforts in implementing a lockfree queue and get it into boost? best, tim [1] http://tim.klingt.org/git?p=boost_lockfree.git;a=summary -- tim@klingt.org http://tim.klingt.org Music is the can opener of the soul. It makes you terribly quiet inside, makes you aware that there's a roof to your being. Henry Miller
