[boost] C++ - STL hash map & Shared memory between 2 unrelated, arbitrary processes

Hi, I am developing an application with 2 unrelated, arbitrary processes having a C++ shared hash map between them to store data. However, I am facing the problem of creating this template hash map in shared memory. Can boost be used for this purpose? Can anybody please suggest me the implementation which can be used to do this? Thanks in advance.
