Package Summary
Interprocess mechanisms vary greatly across platforms - sysv, posix, win32, there are more than a few. This package provides an infrastructure to allow for developing cross platform c++ wrappers around the lower level c api's that handle these mechanisms. These make it not only easier to utilise such mechanisms, but allow it to be done consistently across platforms.

Compiling & Linking
Include the following at the top of any translation unit:
If outside of ros, you will also need to link to ecl_ipc.
Cross Platform Support
Currently there is only the posix structures. There is win32 code lying around from an earlier version of the ecl, but since we're not using windows these days, it is largely untested against more recent updates. When we have a need, it will be reintroduced.
