Table of Contents Boost.Interprocess simplifies the use of
common interprocess communication and synchronization mechanisms
and offers a wide range of them: Boost.Interprocess also offers
higher-level interprocess mechanisms to allocate dynamically
portions of a shared memory or a memory mapped file (in general,
to allocate portions of a fixed size memory segment). Using
these mechanisms, Boost.Interprocess offers useful tools to
construct C++ objects, including STL-like containers, in shared
memory and memory mapped files: There is no need to compile
Boost.Interprocess, since it's a header only library. Just
include your Boost header directory in your compiler include
path. Boost.Interprocess depends on Boost.DateTime, which needs
separate compilation. However, the subset used by
Boost.Interprocess does not need any separate c
