Hello, I have been googling for a while but I cannot find the boost::interprocess library. It is not present in the libraries section or the vault section. I have heard that it makes it very easy to use shared memory and I would like to use it. Is it available for download ? Thanks a lot in advance. I am sorry if it is there in some obvious place and I have somehow managed to miss it. --------------------------------- Get the Yahoo! toolbar and be alerted to new email wherever you're surfing. --------------------------------- Pinpoint customers who are looking for what you sell.

I believe you'll have to check out Boost from cvs to get it. See: http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=7586 Cheers, Chris On 7/20/07, quantum puppy <quantumpuppy496@yahoo.com> wrote:

This unfortunately doesn't give you any documentation, and as pointed out in another thread the interprocess documentation doesn't currently build (see http://xrl.us/29wd). Thankfully, I believe these docs are up-to-date: http://ice.prohosting.com/newfunk/boost/libs/interprocess/doc/html/index.htm... -- Caleb Epstein

Yes, those docs ought to be up-to-date. Still, I don't know why quickbook documentation can't be build. I think it's related to Doxygen, but I might be doing something wrong. Regards, Ion

This highlights why interprocess needs to be on the main boost site. The documentation avaialable with the documentation for other libraries and the code realeased with all the other libraries. Whats holding this up? Is there anything I can do as an experienced boost user to help?

Interprocess hasn't been released yet, and because of that, it's not in the main site (http://www.boost.org/libs/libraries.htm). It's in the cvs and in theory the documentation should be automatically built, but I've just checked that is not being generated (http://www.boost-consulting.org/boost/libs/libraries.htm). I'll download the latest CVS and see what's happening. Another alternative is to include HTML documentation in the repository (I've just checked that Bimap does that). This grows the size of the repository but makes documentation ready to use just downloading the library from CVS and avoids painful quickbook+doxygen+boostbook generation for users that want to use the latest code.

Now the ice.prohosting.com copy of the docs has disappeared. Help? -- Caleb Epstein

Help?
I've uploaded new documentation here (I just announced yesterday): http://igaztanaga.drivehq.com/interprocess/ Documentation is generated without errors with Doxygen 1.4.7. I've just checked that fails with latest Doxygen, so this seems a Doxygen error. I've wrapped (const_)iterator definition in vector.hpp with /// @cond /// @endcond tags to avoid documentation generation for those. This should avoid the error produced by the latest Doxygen until I discover a better way to workaround the problem. Regards, Ion

I must have missed that. Sorry.
