What an great library!
I am trying to extend one of the shared memory examples but I am getting a
compilation error. Basically I have added a vector of char_strings to the
complex object and added a method to add a string to the vector. If anyone
would take a moment to give me suggestion for how to fix this issue or a
suggestion for how I should better add strings to this vector I would
appreciate your input.
The error is:
error C2664: 'void boost::container::vector::push_back(const
boost::interprocess::rv<T> &)' : cannot convert parameter 1 from
'char_string *' to 'const boost::interprocess::rv<T> &'
with [T=char_string, A=char_allocator]
and[T=boost::container::basic_string]
Reason: cannot convert from 'char_string *' to 'const
boost::interprocess::rv<T>'
with
[T=boost::container::basic_string]
No constructor could take the source type, or constructor overload
resolution was ambiguous
