I am sure this will get me slapping my head with my own stuidity, can some one tell me why i am getting this message when i try to compile my application.. /usr/include/boost/date_time/c_time.hpp:49:70: error: macro "localtime" passed 2 arguments, but takes just 1 /usr/include/boost/date_time/c_time.hpp:57:67: error: macro "gmtime" passed 2 arguments, but takes just 1 In file included from /usr/include/boost/date_time/gregorian/gregorian_types.hpp:26, from /usr/include/boost/date_time/gregorian/gregorian.hpp:20, from ./call_asf_import.h:25, i am using a ubuntu linux box with gcc

i include the following boost lines in the header... #include #include // includes path.hpp #include // includes all needed //Boost.Filesystem declarations #include "boost/date_time/gregorian/gregorian.hpp" #include "boost/date_time/posix_time/posix_time.hpp" #include "boost/date_time/local_time/local_time.hpp" .... and the gcc line looks like this.... g++ -g -ggdb -Wall -fmessage-length=0 -fPIC -DPIC -fexceptions -I/usr/include/mysql -DBIG_JOINS=1 -I/usr/include -I/usr/include/libxml++-2.6 -I/usr/lib/libxml++-2.6/include -I/usr/include/libxml2 -I/usr/include/glibmm-2.4 -I/usr/lib/glibmm-2.4/include -I/usr/include/sigc++-2.0 -I/usr/lib/sigc++-2.0/include -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DTHREADS_HAVE_PIDS -DDEBIAN -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/usr/lib/perl/5.8/CORE -DPERL_NO_SHORT_NAMES -pthread -fmessage-length=0 -c call_asf_import.cxx -I/export/mirror/joes-stuff/PS_code//include/external -I/export/mirror/joes-stuff/PS_code//include/native -I/export/mirror/joes-stuff/PS_code//obj -I/export/mirror/joes-stuff/PS_code//src -I . -I/usr/include/boost -I/usr/include/stlsoft -I/usr/include/mysql any help would be greatly appreciated.
