Hi all,<br><br>I&#39;ve got a problem using boost::interprocess::memory_queue on Windows - when trying to call send(), I get a null pointer returned by free_msg. This is because there is an offset_ptr with an offset of 1 at the requested location, causing null to be returned. An exception is then thrown with the message &quot;boost::interprocess::message_queue corrupted&quot;.<br>
<br>Here is a brief summary of my two applications:<br><br>Application 1:<br>- a Windows service<br>- creates two message queues, messagesToApplication and messagesToService<br>- creates a thread that waits for messages in messagesToService<br>
<br>Application 2:<br>- a Windows application<br>- opens the two message queues, with open_only.<br>- tries to send a message to Application 1, the Windows service after it opens the message queues.<br><br>Everything works right up until application 2 tries to send a message via messagesToService. I haven&#39;t yet been able to identify why the offset_ptr has an offset of 1.<br>
<br>If anybody has any suggestions as to what I might be doing wrong, I&#39;d very much appreciate it!<br><br>Thanks,<br>Ian<br><br><br><br>
