Hi,

I must implement a multiple producer-consumer IPC application in win32 (but
will port to linux in near future). I am wondering whether the
boost::interprocess container like list, vector or map is thread-safe
(actually, interprocess-safe?) or I need to use lock in my producer-consumer
application? 

I mean, 
can Producer just simply put shared memory string to container and take it
from Consumer without any lock?

Or is there any multiple producer-consumer example that uses
boost::interprocess? 

Thanks a lot.
