Comment (by anonymous):

 Apparently, it didn't like the backslashes, let me try the examples again:

         boost::filesystem::path p("/database/test/filename");
         p.replace_extension(".db");
         std::cout << p.string() << std::endl;
         // OUTPUT - /database/test/filename.db

         p = "/database.1/test/filename";
         p.replace_extension(".db");  // bug?
         std::cout << p.string() << std::endl;
         // OUTPUT - /database.db
