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
