CygIPC provides shared memory, semaphores, and message support
for cygwin. It provides the following functions:
msgget semget shmget
msgrcv semop shmat
msgsnd semctl shmdt
msgctl shmctl
Thanks to Andrea Malagoli and Pete Forman for various fixes, cygipc now
builds on W2K, and with cygwin-1.1.4. I have not done extensive
testing, but ipctest.exe seems to work well. Since this is not an
'official' cygwin package, it installs into /usr/local/* instead of
/usr/*. To install the precompiled package, just unpack from /:
cd / && tar xvzf <path>/cygipc-1.07-1.tar.gz
Also, after installing this version you may need to remove certain files
from /tmp by hand: /tmp/MultiFile*, /tmp/0, /tmp/1, etc. See the
README file.
You can download source or precompiled packages from:
http://cygutils.netpedia.net/V1.1/
Contrary to my recent habit, this library is static only -- no dll. As
always, bug reports and patches welcome.
