I'm testing the boost 1_33_1 date_time library, but run into a strange compilation problem. In the following code, second_clock::local_time() is fine, but microsec_clock::local_time() will not compile. I'm using XP and visual studio 2005 and VC8. Am I missing anything in my build? compiler messages: 1>.\t2.cpp(18) : error C2653: 'microsec_clock' : is not a class or namespace name 1>.\t2.cpp(18) : error C3861: 'local_time': identifier not found the code: #include "boost/date_time/posix_time/posix_time.hpp" #include <iostream> int main() { using namespace boost::posix_time; ptime now = microsec_clock::local_time(); std::cout << now << std::endl; return 0; } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This message is intended only for the personal and confidential use of the designated recipient(s) named above.
