I'm experiencing a problem using custom formatting of fractional seconds.
const std::string date_string = "2006 Jun 01 999000 23.59.59"; const std::string format_string = "%Y %b %d %f %H.%M.%S";
When using a time_facet together with the "%f" flag, I get a correct output containing a 6-digit number in place of the fractional part.
However, using a time_input_facet together with the "%f" flag, I cannot get a correct ptime from an input using the same format as the above example.

Am I missing something ?
No, I'm afraid this is a parser bug. I've put together a fix I'd like you to try out. I don't believe it's 100% generalized yet, but I believe it fixes your issue and doesn't break any of the current regression tests. Download it from http://boost-consulting.com/vault/index.php under date_time -- time_facet.hpp and patch it into your boost/date_time/ directory. Thanks, Jeff
