I haven't looked at them that closely, but it looks like in the APR
distribution there are a few tests that exercise the apr_shm_* stuff,
namely testshm.c, testshmproducer.c, and testshmconsumer.c. Do these
get you anywhere?

Thanks Josh,
I went ahead and did RTFC. It seems that non anonymous shared memory is
using memory mapped files, as opposed to the Linux way of using a 16 bit
name in a shared memory. It is more susceptible to name clobbering, but
eliminates the need to make sure there is a write permissible file
available on every client.
I guess I will have to implement using good old ipcs shm and one day
attempt to emend the apr lib for it. Just not good enough in
Windows/Novell environment to make it portable.

I am using apr in a non httpd application. I would like to use a shared
memory area to pass information between two different standalone
programs, so I need the shmem to be named. I am trying NOT to resort to
the built-in Linux shmget. Can anyone point a code example of this being
done properly. My current example gives me an error 17 => File Exists.
Thanks
