#8739: Compiler error in bool
boost::local_time::custom_time_zone_base<CharT>::has_dst() const with C++11
mode enabled
------------------------------+------------------------
 Reporter:  gawain.bolton@…   |      Owner:  az_sw_dude
     Type:  Bugs              |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |  Component:  date_time
  Version:  Boost 1.53.0      |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                    |
------------------------------+------------------------
 With C++11 mode enabled (the "-std=c++0x" compiler option) using GCC
 v4.6.2 and boost v1.53 there is a compile error due to the fact that
 boost::shared_ptr<>'s bool conversion operator is now "explicit".

 /export/usr/local/domdev/gbolton/local_repo/wiz/local/boost/1.53.0/include/boost/date_time/local_time/custom_time_zone.hpp:
 In member function 'bool
 boost::local_time::custom_time_zone_base<CharT>::has_dst() const [with
 CharT = char]':
 ../src/DateTime.cpp:636:1:   instantiated from here
 /export/usr/local/domdev/gbolton/local_repo/wiz/local/boost/1.53.0/include/boost/date_time/local_time/custom_time_zone.hpp:67:30:
 error: cannot convert 'const
 boost::shared_ptr<boost::date_time::dst_day_calc_rule<boost::gregorian::date>
 >' to 'bool' in return

 The fix is trivial and so I won't insult anyone's intelligence by
 providing it here!

 Thanks for providing such useful and good quality libraries,

 Gawain Bolton
