Re: [Boost-users] Can't create time_duration with milliseconds onVS.NET 2003

Thank you!

I also discovered that this works:

time_duration t(8, 45, 0, milliseconds(100).fractional_seconds());

The error is valid.  Milliseconds is-a time-duration so you don't pass
it as
the fourth parameter.  Add it instead. Something like:

Try this instead:
   time_duration t(8, 45,0); 
   t += milliseconds(100);

or even clearer:

   time_duration t = hours(8) + minutes(45) + milliseconds(100);
