Are you including the library in your linking? Normally looks something like:
g++ -otest.exe test.o -L
PATH_TO_BOOST/bin/boost/libs/date_time/build/libboost_date_time.a/gcc/debug -l
boost_date_time-gcc-d-1_33
The other option is to avoid to_*_string and the *_from_string functions.
These require the library. You can rewrite your code and go header only with
operators << and >>. For example:
ptime t;
std::stringstream is("2005-Dec-23 00:00:00.123");
is >> t;
time_facet* of = new time_facet();
of->set_iso_extended_format();
std::cout.imbue(std::locale(std::locale::classic(), of));
std::cout << t << std::endl; //prints 2005-12-23 00:00:00.123000
