RE: Shared Memory: How to use SYSV rather than MMAP ?

Hello Thomas, Alvaro,

Sorry for the late answer, I missed your message of September 10. (I'm working on several different projects in parallel.)
Let me talk with Sylvie ASAP and see when I will be able to test it, probably next week, Tuesday. Is that OK for you?

Regards,

Tony

Tony, Sylvie, any chance for some testing on this patch? It seems that
without that, this patch is going to waste.

If I don't hear from anyone on September 30, I'm going to close this as
Returned with Feedback.
