A crate that allows you to share memory between processes.
This crate provides lightweight wrappers around shared memory APIs in an OS agnostic way. It is intended to be used with it's sister crate raw_sync which provide simple primitves to synchronize access to the shared memory (Mutex, RwLock, Events, etc...).

This release breaks backwards compatibility and removes a bunch of previous features which hid many unsafe behaviors (automatically casting shared memory to Rust types).
The release also marks the split between shared_memory
and its synchronization primitives into a seperate crate raw_sync
.
