Yes it should be there for symmetry. Give this a shot: using boost::posix_time; std::string tds; //.. your duration string time_duration td = boost::date_time::parse_undelimited_time_duration<time_duration>(tds); This doesn't look like it will handle fractional seconds, but maybe you don't need that...
