Re: [Boost-users] [date_time] Constructing a ptime with __int64

Seems to be broken on my machine:

   boost::int64_t nTime = 3434;
   ptime oTestTime( nTime );

will result in:

error C2664: 'boost::posix_time::ptime::ptime(boost::gregorian::date)'
: cannot convert parameter 1 from 'boost::int64_t' to
'boost::gregorian::date'
        Constructor for class 'boost::gregorian::date' is declared 'explicit'

I'm using MSVC 7.1 and boost 1.33.1 .

In any event shouldn't a change of the internal representation 64bit
-> 96bit result in an compiler error, when I use "ptime(const
time_rep_type &)"?

Thanks,
Christian
