Subject: [Boost-users] How to use interprocess communication to load the data into map

Hi,
I am using boost interprocess library for loading the data into map <string,
string> . And reading the same map with another program.I am benchmarking
the code given on the following lilnk.
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_38_0/doc/html/interproc/quick_guide.html#interprocess.quick_guide.qg_interprocess_map

#include <boost/interprocess/managed_shared_memory.hpp>
#include <boost/interprocess/containers/map.hpp>
#include <boost/interprocess/allocators/allocator.hpp>
#include <functional>
#include <utility>

int main ()
{
   using namespace boost::interprocess;
   //Shared memory front-end that is able to construct objects
   //associated with a c-string. Erase previous shared memory with the name
   //to be used and create the memory segment at the specified address and
initialize resources
   shared_memory_object::remove("MySharedMemory");

   try{
      managed_shared_memory segment
         (create_only
         ,"MySharedMemory" //segment name
         ,65536); //segment size in bytes

      //Note that map<Key, MappedType>'s value_type is std::pair<const Key,
MappedType>,
      //so the allocator must allocate that pair.
      typedef int KeyType;
      typedef float MappedType;
      typedef std::pair<const int, float> ValueType;

      //Alias an STL compatible allocator of for the map.
      //This allocator will allow to place containers
      //in managed shared memory segments
      typedef allocator<ValueType, managed_shared_memory::segment_manager>
         ShmemAllocator;

      //Alias a map of ints that uses the previous STL-like allocator.
      //Note that the third parameter argument is the ordering function
      //of the map, just like with std::map, used to compare the keys.
      typedef map<KeyType, MappedType, std::less<KeyType>, ShmemAllocator>
MyMap;

      //Initialize the shared memory STL-compatible allocator
      ShmemAllocator alloc_inst (segment.get_segment_manager());

      //Construct a shared memory map.
      //Note that the first parameter is the comparison function,
      //and the second one the allocator.
      //This the same signature as std::map's constructor taking an
allocator
      MyMap *mymap =
         segment.construct<MyMap>("MyMap") //object name
                                    (std::less<int>() //first ctor
parameter
                                    ,alloc_inst); //second ctor
parameter

      //Insert data in the map
      for(int i = 0; i < 100; ++i){
         mymap->insert(std::pair<const int, float>(i, (float)i));
      }
   }
   catch(...){
      shared_memory_object::remove("MySharedMemory");
      throw;
   }
   shared_memory_object::remove("MySharedMemory");
   return 0;
}

but getting the following errors.

manish_at_user-desktop:~/Desktop$ g++ memorymap.cpp

What is the reason for this pblm? Thanks in advance.
