Subject: [Boost-users] boost::unordered_map using boost::interprocess::cached_node_allocator compilation failure
From: Lenny Maiorani (lenny_at_[hidden])
Date: 2011-09-14 17:35:24
Hi Boost-ers,
I am trying to create a boost::unordered_map in a boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory segment. This works fine until I try to change from using boost::interprocess::allocator to boost::interprocess::cached_node_allocator.
It seems that the hash_bucket structure is deferring the key size calculation, but the cached_node_allocator needs the size at compilation time. Any ideas on how to make this work?
Below is a sample attempt which displays my problem along with the GCC output.
Thanks,
-Lenny
Sample code:
#include <boost/interprocess/managed_shared_memory.hpp>
#include <boost/interprocess/segment_manager.hpp>
#include <boost/interprocess/containers/string.hpp>
#include <boost/interprocess/allocators/cached_node_allocator.hpp>
#include <boost/unordered_map.hpp>
using namespace boost::interprocess;
int main ()
{
  //Create shared memory.
  managed_shared_memory segment(create_only, 
                                "SharedMem",  //segment name
                                65536);
  // Define cached node allocator type for char in a shared memory segment.
  typedef boost::interprocess::
      cached_node_allocator<char,
      managed_shared_memory::segment_manager> cached_node_allocator_t;
  // Define an interprocess string type which uses the cached node allocator.
  typedef boost::interprocess::
      basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>,
      cached_node_allocator_t> shared_string_t;
  // Get an instance of the allocator.
  cached_node_allocator_t allocator_instance(
      segment.get_segment_manager());
  // Create an unordered map with Key and Value as interprocess strings, using the default hash and predicate
  // and use the cached node allocator.
  boost::unordered_map<shared_string_t, shared_string_t,
                       boost::hash<shared_string_t>, 
                       std::equal_to<shared_string_t>,
                       cached_node_allocator_t> my_map_t(allocator_instance);
  
  return 0;
}
GCC output:
