[Boost-users] [Interprocess] Unable to list created shared memory via ipcs command

Hello,

I am a new user of the  Boost Libraries. Currently, I tried the
Boost.Interprocess source library with an
example program which creates a shared memory segment and writes a vector
into the shared memory. A receiver process
attaches to the named shared memory segment and outputs the vector. This
all works has advertized. The one issue is that whenever I try to list
the shared memory segment via the ipcs -m command I do not see the shared
memory created from the sender program. This is the code snippet which
creates the shared memory: #include <boost/interprocess/managed_shared_memory.hpp>
...managed_shared_memory segment
(create_only
,"MySharedMemory" //segment name
,65536); //segment size in bytes
... Note: The sender program is running for 5 minutes before terminating
and removing
the shared memory. The binaries were built with g++  version 3.4.6
20060404 (Red Hat 3.4.6-8)

RedHat Linux 5:
Kernal Version : uname -a
Linux xxx 2.6.9-67.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Nov 7 13:56:44 EST 2007 x86_64 x86_64
x86_64 GNU/Linux

Best Regards,
Leo
