The "%T" and "%R" format specifiers are now processed by the library rather than underlying standard facet.
|

This fixes the cases when the placeholders are not supported by the facet

The default format for time durations is now "%-%O:%M:%S%F" instead of "%-%H:%M:%S%F" that was used previously. In order to retain the old behavior, the format string has to be specified explicitly during the time IO facet construction (<ulink url="https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/1861">#1861</ulink>).

Added support for formatting and reading time durations longer than 24 hours.
|
|
A new formatter <code>%O</code> is used indicate such long durations in the
|
|
format string. The old <code>%H</code> format specifier is thus restricted
|
|
to represent durations that fit into two characters, in order to retain support
|
|
for reading durations in ISO format. In case if it is detected that the <code>%H</code>
|
|
format specifier is used with longer durations, the results are not specified
|
|
(an assertion in debug builds is raised).

Updated the data in the date_time_zonespec.csv file to reflect new US/Canada
|
|
daylight savings time rules for 2007. If you upgrade to the new file, be aware
|
|
that the library will only give correct answers for current/future date
|
|
conversions. So if you are converting dates from earlier years the answers
|
|
will reflect current time zone rules not past rules. The library doesn't support
|
|
historic timezone rules presently.

|
Two other dst calculation features have also been update to reflect the new
|
|
US/Canada timzone rules. This is the boost::date_time::us_dst_rules and
|
|
dst_calc_engine. While the us_dst_rules is officially deprecated, a patch
|
|
by Graham Bennett has been applied which allows this class to work correctly
|
|
for both historical and future dates. The dst_calc_engine was updated to also
|
|
work for historical and future times. This allows the various local_adjustor
|
|
classes to work correctly. There was an interface change for classes using the
|
|
dst_calc_engine with custom dst traits classes. The traits classes signatures
|
|
changed to take a 'year' parameter on most of the methods such as end_month.
|
|
In addition, 2 new functions are needed on the traits classes:
|
|
<code>static date_type local_dst_start_day(year_type year)</code> and
|
|
<code>static date_type local_dst_end_day(year_type year)</code>.
|
|
Implementers should see <code>date_time/local_timezone_defs.hpp</code> for
|
|
examples.

<entry>Snap to end of month behavior corrected for year_functor. Previously, starting
|
|
from 2000-Feb-28 (leap year and not end of month) and iterating through the next
|
|
leap year would result in 2004-Feb-29 instead of 2004-Feb-28. This behavior has
|
|
been corrected to produce the correct result of 2004-Feb-28. Thanks to Bart Garst

<entry>New experimental duration types added for months, years, and weeks. These classes
|
|
also provide mathematical operators for use with date and time classes. Be aware
|
|
that adding of months or years a time or date past the 28th of a month may show
|
|
non-normal mathematical properties. This is a result of 'end-of-month'
|
|
snapping used in the calculation. The last example below illustrates the
|
|
issue.
|
|
|
|
<screen>months m(12);
|

years y(1);

m == y; // true

Notice: The interface to the partial_date class (see <link linkend="date_time.gregorian.date_algorithms">date_algorithms</link>) was changed. The order of construction parameters was changed which will cause some code to fail execution. This change was made to facilitate more generic local time adjustment code. Thus instead of specifying partial_date pd(Dec,25) the code needs to be changed to partial_date pd(25, Dec);
