I need to use shared memory in an application on Windows and Solaris so I’ve grabbed boost::shmem 0.93. It works fine on Windows but fails to compile on Solaris 10/SunPro 11. Has anybody had success on Solaris? I get the following errors when I try to compile.

1 Error(s) and 1 Warning(s) detected.
The offending bit of code is:
void sendPathAndName(std::string &path, std::string &name, boost::shmem::named_shared_object *pSegment)
{
if(mpPath != NULL)
{
pSegment->deallocate(mpPath.get()); // ß error
}
Where mpPath is a boost::shmem::offset_ptr<char> that was created with pSegment->allocate()
