using from_string with boost date

问题:

I have the following code:

    #include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
#include <locale>


#include <boost/date_time/gregorian/gregorian.hpp>
#include <boost/date_time/gregorian/parsers.hpp>

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

using namespace boost::posix_time;
using namespace boost::gregorian;


int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
 std::string ds("2011-01-02");
date dt(from_string(ds));
date_facet *f=new date_facet("%Y-%m-%d");

 std::locale loc=std::locale(std::locale::classic(),f);
std::cout.imbue(loc);


   std::cout<<dt<<std::endl;


  return 0;

}

and when I compile it, I get the following error:

/tmp/ccBWTFcx.o: In function `unsigned short boost::date_time::month_str_to_ushort<boost::gregorian::greg_month>(std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> > const&)':

    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

is this a library link issue?

回答1:

Boost date_time isn't header only, you need to link it on the command line, for example:

gcc myprogram.cpp -omyprogram -lboost_date_time
