Synopsis

// In header: <boost/date_time/date_clock_device.hpp>

template<typename date_type> 
class day_clock {
public:
  // types
  typedef date_type::ymd_type ymd_type;

  // public static functions
  static date_type local_day();
  static date_type::ymd_type local_day_ymd();
  static date_type::ymd_type universal_day_ymd();
  static date_type universal_day();

  // private static functions
  static ::std::tm * get_local_time(std::tm &);
  static ::std::tm * get_universal_time(std::tm &);
};

Description

This clock uses Posix interfaces as its implementation and hence uses the timezone settings of the operating system. Incorrect user settings will result in incorrect results for the calls to local_day.
