It depends on the concrete aspect of memory mapping you are interested in. In fact, all of interprocess-communication in Simple Components is based on memory-mapped files: http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de/ada/components.htm#inter-process_communucation Both in Linux/FreeBSD and Windows memory-sharing is based on memory-mapped files. Under Linux even synchronization objects (e.g. futex) must be memory-mapped file resident. So it goes. -- Regards, Dmitry A. Kazakov http://www.dmitry-kazakov.de
