C++ module

[Rajalakshmi Iyer]

Thanks everyone.

I have been able to compile a C++ module fine. But I am primarily trying to figure out if it's safe to use features like STL containers or Boost libraries within an Nginx module.

I am asking this because if I try to allocate an std::string within say the module context, I see a segmentation fault. I assume it's because of the Nginx pool mechanism?
