[Boost-users] Segfault when using date_time

Subject: [Boost-users] Segfault when using date_time

I attempted to rebuild my Boost installation with nanosecond support for
the date-time library. I did so by adding
BOOST_DATE_TIME_POSIX_TIME_STD_CONFIG = 1 ;
to boost-build.jam and adding
 <define>BOOST_DATE_TIME_POSIX_TIME_STD_CONFIG
to the jamfile in date_time/build. However, when I add this code to my
application and compile, it segfaults:
boost::posix_time::time_duration time1, time2;

    time1=boost::posix_time::seconds(3);
    std::cout << boost::posix_time::to_simple_string(time1) << std::endl;

    time2=boost::posix_time::nanoseconds(987654321);
    std::cout << boost::posix_time::to_simple_string(time2) << std::endl;
    boost::this_thread::sleep(time2);

The segfault is at
/archive/home/ssiegal/test/include/boost/date_time/posix_time/posix_time_config.hpp:99:
(gdb) list
94      {
95        typedef gregorian::date      date_type;
96        typedef time_duration        time_duration_type;
97        simple_time_rep(date_type d, time_duration_type tod) :
98          day(d),
99          time_of_day(tod)
100        {
101          // make sure we have sane values for date & time
102          if(!day.is_special() && !time_of_day.is_special()){
103            if(time_of_day >= time_duration_type(24,0,0)) {

Anyone else ever see this? Is there anything else I need to do to turn on
nanosecond resolution?

Thanks very much!
