I would like to know if there is any interested in boost for developing such classes, based or not in my article ideas or code. If there is any interest, I would be glad to present a boostified version of the library/framework for a review proccess. Currently, the framework uses these ideas:
Yes, me too, I am very interested by such library if it could provide, in addition to relative pointer, a STLAllocator that is working with "raw pointer" allocator scheme. By the way, there will be a small additional problem to solve for the library to be complete: the reference of shared objects placed in the shared memory with virtual functions. As such, the smart pointer will have to update the virtual table on each reference to the shared object before returing back the "raw pointer" on the object to the caller!! (unless the underlying OS garantee to map each instance of a shared library at the same base address of each process...Ugh...) Francis
Hello to all,
My name is Ion Gaztañaga, a telecommunication engineer working in railway industry R&D . I've been lately working on a CUJ article about placing STL containers (and any other object) in shared memory using smart pointers instead of raw pointers as allocator::pointer.
