Yes, this is a problem with Visual Studio as well.

Note that the same bug occur when calling:

boost::local_time::local_sec_clock::local_time();

It works with posix time:

#include <boost/date_time/posix_time/ptime.hpp>

#include <boost/date_time/microsec_time_clock.hpp>

#include <boost/date_time/local_time/local_time.hpp>

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {

std::cout << boost::date_time::microsec_clock<boost::posix_time::ptime>::local_time() << std::endl; return 0;

}

However as reported in bug, it does not work with local time. There is no overloaded constructor of boost::local_time::local_date_time_base, with following prototype: local_date_time_base(date_type,time_duration_type).

There are 3 parameterized constructors defined: i> local_date_time_base(utc_time_type, boost::shared_ptr<tz_type>) ii> local_date_time_base(date_type, time_duration_type, boost::shared_ptr<tz_type>, bool) iii> local_date_time_base(date_type, time_duration_type, boost::shared_ptr<tz_type>, DST_CALC_OPTIONS)
