Hello!

Memory Leaks in Boost.Date_Time ?

Code:

        #include <boost/date_time.hpp>
        #include <iostream>
        
        using namespace boost::posix_time;
        using namespace std;
        
        int main()
        {
            time_duration interval = seconds(120);
            cout << "interval = " << interval << endl;
        }
