Is it possible to use the boost date_time date class with wide strings? ie. std::wstring toConvert(L"12/12/2008"); date myDate; myDate = from_simple_string(toConvert); What do I have to do to enable this? I see the library is using std::string only. Thanks. (sorry, newbie post). _________________________________________________________________ Win 100’s of Virgin Experience days with BigSnapSearch.com http://www.bigsnapsearch.com
