Hello,
I noticed that the "operator/()" isn't declared "const", I think this is an error. If so, can I correct it in my copy of boost (1_32) and hope that in the next version this is fixed?
You are correct -- should be in the next release.
Further, I miss the "operator/(const time_duration&)", is there a reason why there isn't such a thing?
The reason is that I guess I didn't see the utility. What does it mean to divide 10 minutes by 5 minutes? AFAIK it the result must be a dimensionless ratio. In which case it might be better to just get the values and compare them.
BTW, I just read an old thread (Sep. 2003) about double arithmetic for the time_duration operators '*' and '/'. What's the plan here, is it going to stay 'int'-based (because I wrote my own double-based ones, not really nice I have to say).
I'm not planning on adding double arithmetic. Jeff
