boost::gregorian::greg_year — Represent a day of the month (range 1900 - 10000).
// In header: <boost/date_time/gregorian/greg_year.hpp> class greg_year { public: // construct/copy/destruct greg_year(unsigned short); // public member functions operator unsigned short() const; };
This small class allows for simple conversion an integer value into a year for the gregorian calendar. This currently only allows a range of 1900 to 10000. Both ends of the range are a bit arbitrary at the moment, but they are the limits of current testing of the library. As such they may be increased in the future.
