Generally: four stars, two thumbs up, and a partridge in a pear tree. I'm interested in directly using the Windows/POSIX mmap portability wrapper; might we promote it out of the detail namespace? That is, I may want to use mmap to perform some explicit memory swapping/caching. It looks like I could first create a file of the desired size, then acquire a mapped_file_resource - but then I don't get access to the actual pointer to memory (it's hidden in the private _pimpl). This is fine; what I really want is a portability wrapper for mmap :) Thanks, Jonathan
