Just out of interest, what is the problem that prevents the date-time library from implementing a microsecond clock using GetSystemTimeAsFileTime on Win32?
We finally got this knocked off the todo list. If you look at the recent regression tests you will see the microsecond clock is now enabled and passing on a variety of Win32 compilers that were previously excluded. No guarantees that clocks on Win32 provide that level of resolution -- your resolution may be less, as we have discussed here. There is also a 'from_ftime' function (similar to from_time_t) to construct a ptime on Win32 -- which failed regressions last night because I failed to check in the entire change... Enjoy :-) Jeff
