Hi,
I am new to cygwin and trying to port existng Linux
based implementation of shared memory on cygwin.
I am having issues with shmget call. I tried to debug
and found out that everytime I try to call shmget
function I get an error and the main thread exits:
Program exited with code 06000
I checked cygwin documentation and mailing lists:
I have ipc-daemon2 running
cygserver is also running with default options which
includes :
XSI IPC Shared Memory support.
Would appreciate if someone could point out what is
the real issue.
Thanks...
Rahul

Here is a snippet of my code:
int main{)
{
int i;
for (i=0; i<SHM_TAB_SZ; i++)
{
shm_tab[i].free=1;
}
shm_id = shmget(LOADGEN_SHM_KEY,
SHM_TAB_SZ*sizeof(SHM_DATA),
0777|IPC_CREAT);
if (shm_id <0)
{
if (debug) printf("\nLGEN:shmget
failed...\n");
perror("LGEN:shmget:");
}
}
