I'm using boost 1.53 and GCC 4.1.2. I've tried to use boost unordered_map in some tests (documentation says, that it should work with shared memory), but i'm unable to compile my code. With interprocess::map instead of unordered everything is ok.
Typedefs:
typedef boost::interprocess::allocator<char, SegmentManager> CharAllocator;
typedef boost::interprocess::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, CharAllocator> ShmString;
typedef ShmString HashKeyType;
//ComplexType is a wrapper for internal interprocess::map
typedef ComplexType HashMappedType;
typedef std::pair<const ShmString, ComplexType> HashValueType;
typedef boost::interprocess::allocator<HashValueType,
boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory::segment_manager> HashMemAllocator;
typedef boost::unordered_map
< HashKeyType , HashMappedType
, boost::hash<HashKeyType> ,std::equal_to<HashKeyType>
, HashMemAllocator>
TestHashMap;
Allocation:
boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory segment( boost::interprocess::open_or_create, "MySharedMemory", 65536);
thm_ = segment.construct<TestHashMap>("TestHashMap")
(3, boost::hash<ShmString>(), std::equal_to<ShmString>()
, segment.get_allocator<HashValueType>());
Usage:
boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory segment( boost::interprocess::open_only, "MySharedMemory");
ShmString str("123.345", segment.get_allocator<ShmString>());
ComplexType th("MySharedMemory");
HashValueType value(str, th);
thm_->insert(value);
And here is some error output:

I'm not sure if the problem is in my code, or because of old compiler version.
If the problem is with compiler, then could it be fixed with newer version of boost? (i can't update my GCC). Or maybe there are some implementations of hash table, that are compatible with shared memory and with my compiler?
Here's a fixed up version.
I just tried to make it self contained according to the suggestive comments. And it works.
Hope it helps anyways:

Shared-memory IPC synchronization (lock-free)
My use case aligns very closely with what has been described in the above question. But I wanted to go a step further in creating the spsc queue dynamically with a user defined runtime size. I tried implementing it with the following code:
void create_shared_spsc_queue(size_t sz)
{
using char_alloc = boost::interprocess::allocator<char, boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory::segment_manager>;
using shared_string = boost::interprocess::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, char_alloc>;
using string_alloc = boost::interprocess::allocator<shared_string, boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory::segment_manager>;
using ring_buffer_dynamic = boost::lockfree::spsc_queue<shared_string, boost::lockfree::allocator<string_alloc> >;
ring_buffer_dynamic *queue_dynamic_;
boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory segment_(boost::interprocess::open_only, "MySharedMemroy");
string_alloc string_alloc_(segment_.get_segment_manager());
queue_dynamic_ = segment_.construct<ring_buffer_dynamic>(rbuff_name)(string_alloc_, sz);
}
But this throws compilation error:
/usr/include/boost/interprocess/detail/named_proxy.hpp:85:7: error: no matching function for call to ‘boost::lockfree::spsc_queue<boost::container::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, boost::interprocess::allocator<char,

I can understand its related to issue with allocators, but I can't seem to resolve it,
with my limited understanding of allocators. How can I implement this?
For posterity: I figured, I was calling the ctor of spsc_queue in wrong order of arguments. The following works:
queue_dynamic_ = segment_.construct<ring_buffer_dynamic>(rbuff_name)(sz, string_alloc_);

I'm building some wrapper over the boost::interprocess::flat_map, the problem is, that i'm unable to use operator[] or at for some reason. When i'm using find or insert it compiles succesfully.
typedef boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory::segment_manager SegmentManager;
typedef boost::interprocess::allocator<char, SegmentManager> CharAllocator;
typedef boost::interprocess::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>,
CharAllocator> ShmString;
typedef short KeyType;
typedef ShmString MappedType;
typedef std::pair<const short, ShmString> ValueType;
typedef boost::interprocess::allocator<ValueType,
boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory::segment_manager> ShMemAlloc;
typedef boost::interprocess::flat_map<KeyType, MappedType,
std::less<short>, ShMemAlloc> ShMap;
class Wrapper {
public:
Wrapper(boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory* memSeg) :
m_memSeg(memSeg) {
const ShMemAlloc initAlloc(m_memSeg->get_segment_manager());
m_storage = m_memSeg->construct
<ShMap> (boost::interprocess::anonymous_instance)
(std::less<KeyType>(), initAlloc);
ShmString str(initAlloc);
ValueType val(10, str);
m_storage->insert(val); //Ok
ShMap::iterator it = m_storage->find(5); //Ok
if(it != m_storage->end())
it->second = str;
(*m_storage)[5] = str; //Compilation error
};
~Wrapper();
protected:
boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory* m_memSeg;
ShMap* m_storage;
};
It seem's like there is a problem with type deduction in allocator inside the operator[] call, but i have no idea how to use it correctly.

This took some digging. Your problem is that flat_map::operator[] requires the mapped type T to be default constructable because if the object does not exist it needs to be able to insert a default object at that location.
Your ShmString is not default constructable because it doesn't have a default constructable allocator (it has to use the shared memory allocator).
Thus it appears that in your case you will be unable to make use of operator[] and have to use other methods like insert, find, etc.
I have a problem with placing boost::lockfree::queue<<T, fixed_sized<false>, ..>
in shared memory. I need it because I have to be able to insert more than 65535 messages into the queue, and fixed_sized queue is limited with 65535.
The following code works properly (but capacity<...> option implies fixed_sized<true>):
typedef boost::interprocess::allocator<
MessageT,
boost::interprocess::managed_shared_memory::segment_manager>
ShmemAllocator;

Please tell me what I'm missing
using boost::lockfree::queue or boost::lockfree::stack in shared memory is limited to 65535 elements, for compatibility reasons. if you have a single-producer, single-consumer use-case, you might want to use the boost::lockfree::spsc_queue. however this is also not dynamically-sized.
reason for this is limitation is 32bit compatibility. for 64bit platforms one might be able to adapt the boost.lockfree code to use 32bit instead of 16bit indices. but it would require some non-trivial changes to implement things correctly.
I have the following code that saves a map into shared memory using boost interprocess
using namespace boost::interprocess;
//Shared memory front-end that is able to construct objects
//associated with a c-string. Erase previous shared memory with the name
//to be used and create the memory segment at the specified address and initialize resources
shared_memory_object::remove("MySharedMemory");
try{
managed_shared_memory segment
(create_only
,"MySharedMemory" //segment name
,655360); //segment size in bytes
//Note that map<Key, MappedType>'s value_type is std::pair<const Key, MappedType>,
//so the allocator must allocate that pair.
typedef allocator<char, managed_shared_memory::segment_manager> CharAllocator;
typedef basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char> ,CharAllocator> MyShmString;
typedef allocator<MyShmString, managed_shared_memory::segment_manager> StringAllocator;
typedef int KeyType;
typedef std::pair<const int, StringAllocator> ValueType;
typedef StringAllocator MappedType;
typedef allocator<ValueType, managed_shared_memory::segment_manager> ShmemAllocator;
typedef map<KeyType, MappedType, std::less<KeyType>, ShmemAllocator> MyMap;
//Initialize the shared memory STL-compatible allocator
ShmemAllocator alloc_inst (segment.get_segment_manager());
CharAllocator charallocator (segment.get_segment_manager());
//Construct a shared memory map.
//Note that the first parameter is the comparison function,
//and the second one the allocator.
//This the same signature as std::map's constructor taking an allocator
MyMap *mymap =
segment.construct<MyMap>("MyMap") //object name
(std::less<int>() //first ctor parameter
,alloc_inst); //second ctor parameter
//Insert data in the map
MyShmString mystring(charallocator);
mystring = "this is my text";
for(int i = 0; i < 100; ++i){
//mymap[i] = mystring;
mymap->insert(std::pair<const int, MappedType>(i, mystring));
}
}
this code doesnt compile.. it throws the following error

the difference if
::pair(int&, main()::MyShmString&)
so i am guessing
mymap->insert(std::pair<const int, MappedType>(i, mystring));
is not the correct way to go.. so how should i insert into the map, if the error is there.. else what is the error?
Surely the value_type is:
typedef std::pair<const int, MyShmString > ValueType;
not
typedef std::pair<const int, StringAllocator> ValueType;
And similarly:
typedef MyShmString MappedType;
not
typedef StringAllocator MappedType;
Your types are different, is that intentional? MyShmString is not the same as MappedType - may be you ought to change the following line:
typedef StringAllocator MappedType;
to
typedef MyShmString MappedType;
This is what i have so far. But this doesnt even compile. What should i do to make it work?
typedef allocator<int, managed_shared_memory::segment_manager> vecAllocator;
typedef vector<int, vecAllocator> vec;
typedef std::pair<const int, vec> ValueType;
typedef allocator<ValueType, managed_shared_memory::segment_manager> ShmemAllocator;
typedef multimap<int, vec, std::less<int>, ShmemAllocator> MyMap;
ShmemAllocator alloc_inst (segment.get_segment_manager());
vecAllocator vectorallocator (segment.get_segment_manager());
MyMap *mymap = segment.construct<MyMap>("MyMap")(std::less<int>(),alloc_inst);
vec *myvec = segment.construct<vec>("myvec")(std::less<int>(), vectorallocator);
myvec->push_back(10);
how do i proceed now to insert this vector into the map?
This is one of the things that I tried
mymap->insert(std::pair<const int, vec>(i, myvec));
but doesnt seem to work. I kno that creating a pointer to a vector in shared memory is not the right way to go. I need to create an object for that if i am to insert it into the map. but how to do that or atleast how to incorporate these things in shared memory?
the error thrown by g++ is :

there is no use for passing std::less<int> instance. Try this:
vec *myvec = segment.construct<vec>("myvec")(vectorallocator);
