As far as I know, this isn't possible, but its on my #2 on my signals wishlist after #1, thread safety. One way I could see this sort of thing implemented is similar to how a quality standard C++ library implements contrainers that can be shared between two processes: the signal class would be parameterized by an allocator, and only use storage that is a member of the class or that has been all allocated with this allocator. This would permit you to just pass it a shared memory allocator and allocate the Signal class itself in shared memory, and have everything "just work." Aaron W. LaFramboise
