Implementing STL container in shared memeory

Can we implement generic container like vector and set in shared
memory region ( we get from Linux system calls shmget( ) ,
shmat( ) ) ??

i am facing problem in that ?

Coming to c++ vector, this template has 2 parameters(template
parameters). First is the generic type and the second an allocator
that is defaulted. This default allocator uses heap for memory
requirements. We could replace this allocator with our own one which
could possibly use shmget and so. You may want to refer to the link

out) finding an allocator that used the shared memory.
