Shared memory still not exposed via managed classes in .NET 2.0?

[Guest]

I was looking for managed classes that exposed shared memory figuring they
would be part of the framework in 2.0. I couldn't find any. Am I just not
looking in the correct place or is shared memory support still not in the
product?

By the way, when I was searching the .NET 2.0 SDK documentation I did see
some samples that implemented their own shared memory classes. This would
seem to indicate that there are no shared memory managed classes exposed by
the framework.

P.S. It's somewhat confusing to me which newsgroups I would be better off
using. These or the ones at http://support.microsoft.com/newsgroups. The
ones at the support site didn't have specific .NET topics.

There is the IPC Remoting channel, which uses Named Pipes, which uses shared
memory for Inter Process Communications.

System.Runtime.Remoting.Channels.Ipc

Direct use of shared memory, like direct use of local memory, still requires
interop.
