I am a user of the Boost Thread library experimental class, "sync_queue".

I would like to know if there is a way to remove all elements currently in the queue.

I don't see a "clear()" or "erase()" type method exposed and I don't see an easy way to access the internal container as a workaround.

I think the close() operation is the closest thing to what you want.

It looks like this type doesn't present copy assignation either so you cannot do my_queue = {}; to reset it.

I suspect this is by design.
