Re: [boost] DateTime conversion to tm problem?

Hi,

The posix_time::to_tm function clears the date fields of the std::tm structure. Having zeros on year, month and day fields represent the 1900-01-00 date according to the std::tm conventions, which is a date that did not exist.

Which boost version do you use? In the current trunk version I see that posix_time::to_tm(ptime) calls gregorian::to_tm to initialize date portion of the tm structure. Or were you referring to posix_time::to_tm(time_duration)? If so then the comment explicitly says that the resulting tm structure has zeroed date portion. Considering that the original argument is duration, I think the function behavior is correct.
