Hi,
is there any way to force ptime stream input fail when the time duration part is not between 00:00:00 and 23:59:59?

Since these are treated as a time_duration for i/o there isn't a switch in the library to do this. I think the easiest way to do this would be to break down the streaming into it's parts and check in your client code. Here's the sketch if how it can be trivially done:
ptime getTime(istream& is) { //assuming formatting is already set... date d; time_duration td; is >> d; is >> td; if (td > hours(24)) { throw .... } return ptime(d, td); }
That's what I suspected. Thanks for the tip. // Johan
