Boost-ers, When I try to allocate more elements from a managed shared memory segment than allowed, I don't seem to be getting an error from the boost library. It looks like the reason for it is because the call to "construct_func" from "priv_open_or_create" in "boost::interprocess::detail::managed_open_or_create_impl" returns true/false, but that return value is never checked. I saw this error with boost versrion 1.43.0, but that specific portion of the code doesn't seem to have changed even in 1.48.0.

From the looks of it, it seems like the construct_func should throw instead of returning, but in 1.43.0, it is returning a value. Should the return value be check and appropriate action be taken here or am I missing something.

Any help is much appreciated. Thanks, -Raghu
