Hi there, I've found wrong usage of std::stringstream::narrow in date_parsing.hpp template<class date_type, class iterator_type> inline date_type from_stream_type(iterator_type& beg, iterator_type& end, wchar_t) { std::stringstream ss(""); while(beg != end) { ss << ss.narrow(*beg++, 'X'); // 'X' will cause exception to be thrown } return parse_date<date_type>(ss.str()); } In the code above ss.narrow does nothing, because the argument of narrow function already has type char, not wchar_t at all. I think, that the right code should be like this: template<class date_type, class iterator_type> inline date_type from_stream_type(iterator_type& beg, iterator_type& end, wchar_t) { std::stringstream ss(""); while(beg != end) { ss << std::use_facet<std::ctype<wchar_t>

(std::locale()).narrow(*beg++, 'X'); } return parse_date<date_type>(ss.str()); }
