question about interprocess_condition::timed_wait

I'm trying to use interprocess_condition::timed_wait without success. I
never get the timeout in my code. I think I don't understand at all how
posix_time works. My code is the following:
ptime t = boost::posix_time::microsec_clock::local_time();
ptime timeout = t + milliseconds(1000);
scoped_lock

lock(InterprocessMutex, timeout); if (get_shared_data(lock).m_message) if (!InterprocessCondition.timed_wait(lock, timeout)) { // handle timeout } Is that ok?
Use universal time. That issue is missing in the documentation and it will be fixed in the next release.
Thanks.

Worked like a charm,
