Hello boost::interprocess community,

During my pet projects development I found that a file access
synchronization is a common problem so, I wrote a class that wraps it and
thought that it can be useful for wider community. I would like to ask you
what do you think about such functionality in boost::interprocess? I'm
aware that class from the repo is not ready to release. Just wanted to show
about what functionality I'm talking about.

Here you can find the repo: https://github.com/stryku/file_mutex
You can find there the proposed class and a simple usage example.

If you will find it interesting I will prepare more formal merge proposal,
update docs, maybe more examples etc.

Looking forward to hearing from you what do you think about it.

Thank you,
Mateusz Janek
