Re: get all shared memory segments

My apologies that I can't give you a straight forward answer. I never
employed too much shared memory in my codes. But I can tell you how to
find out what you need to know.. do an 'nm' or 'dump -Tv' on the ipcs
command. That will tell you all the library functions ipcs calls, all
the system calls ipcs does. Then read publib on those calls and you
should be able to find your way out.

Thanks and regards,

Hello,

how can i get all shared memory segments on aix5 using c++?

I can use shmget(),shmat(),shmdt() and other functions only if i know
shmid of shared memory. But i can't get list of shmid for all shared
memory segments in system.

Do AIX have command ipcs(8) like linux? If so use command "ipcs -m".

It does. "ipcs -m" will work.

I'm sorry, guys. I need to get shared memory segments by using c\c++
language. So, i need to know which functions i should use to get list
of all shared memory segments in AIX system.

Thanks.
