I am having a system that has some logic that depends on the time past. I was about to start testing it against daylight savings when I realized since I am using the time more just to evaluate a duration and I do not care if the time is precise or not I can avoid issues with the daylight savings completely if my API returns the time unaffected from it.

Note my project is multi-platform long running server (more than 43. something days) - I do not want to use tick counter that might restart.

My question is how I can use boost to give me current local (or whatever) time without daylight savings reflected (that might cause a big jump two times per year).

Thanks
