6181	"Function for overlaoding ""="" operator in boost/interprocess/sync/file_lock.hpp should be made public ( It is private currently )"	pravar.jawalkar@…	Ion Gaztañaga	"I am using boost1.38.0 with below combination:

- OS : HP-UX 11iv3
- Compiler : aCC A.0.17 ( It is said to be compatible with boost1.38.0)

I am using include boost/interprocess/sync/file_lock.hpp somewhere in my source that use ""="" operator for assigning one file_lock object to another.

 ScopedShmAttacher::ScopedShmAttacher():
        shmPtr(NULL),
        lockStatus(-1),
        lockFd(0)
{
        std::string mtxName = lockFileDir + lockFileName;
        createLockFile(mtxName);
        this->flock = boost::interprocess::file_lock(mtxName.c_str());
        this->lock();
}


The above piece of code fails at compilation because ""="" operator which is overloaded in file_lock class is declared private and also not defined.

But when I compile same code with boost1.45.0, My code compiles.

It would be better if same functionality as of boost1.45.0 can be provided in boost1.38.0. I am not sure though it is feasible. I am trying for some hack as of now."	Feature Requests	closed	To Be Determined	interprocess	Boost 1.38.0	Problem	wontfix
