Hi,

I'm using interprocess to share mem between different processes. 
Unfortunately these processes were built using different compiler 
version (gcc3, gcc4, gcc5) and we're seeing different alignment or 
padding dependent on which run-time was in charge of creating the mapped 
files. Of course we used the same boost version (1.60) while creating 
the binaries.

Obviously ip can't handle these different layouts and mostly runs in 
indefinite loops while traversing an rb-tree not finding the first shm 
object.

Are there any template parameters that enable the code to be accessed 
using different run times through forcing the same layout?

Thanks a lot,
Jan.
