Hi,

Currently I'm creating a boost date_time object as follows:

boost::shared_ptr<boost::posix_time::ptime> time(new 
boost::posix_time::ptime(boost::posix_time::microsec_clock::local_time()));

Now that the ptime object has been created how do I update the boost 
pointer with a new local_time?  There doesn't seem to be any function 
calls or operators that allow the setting of time.  The only operators 
seem to allow you to offset the time not replace it.
