Re: [Boost-Users] Problem with time_period

Strange. I don't remember how I did find out it
existed, but here it is, in greg_duration.hpp:

typedef date_duration days;

So, it really is in the library :)

Well, after using hours() instead of days, it worked,
so, I now know what's wrong.

Thank you very much. I can't wait to see the upcoming
version. You've done a really great work, I'm grateful
cause it's making life easier for me in my current
assignment.

I'm not sure where 'days' is coming from -- its not
a class in the library.  Based on the compiler error 
it looks like the issue is using date_duration intead 
of time duration with the time_period.

So instead you could do something like:

hours duration(24);

Or if you really want a class called days
you can do something like:

class days : public boost::posix_time::time_duration
{
public:
  days(int day_count) :
     boost::posix_time::time_duration(day_count*24)
  {}
};

HTH.  And, BTW in the upcoming 1.30 release you will
be
able to get rid of all the DATE_TIME_INLINE stuff...
