Boost.DateTime + wstring?

I can't seem to find that they go hand-in-hand.
Converting a simple wide string into a date seems impossible by any easy means. std::string on the other hand would works just like so:

Code:

      std::string s("2001-10-9"); //2001-October-09
      date d(from_simple_string(s));

But this does not work for wide strings.
Is there a better way to do this besides using confusing C/C++ date/time functionality and without having to convert the wide string to a narrow string?

I expected the Boost library to be quality, yet it lacks wide support?

Boost is inhomogenous. Most libraries that concern themselves with strings support wide strings, some might not.

Apparently, DateTime does so only partially. There seems to be wide streaming support for local_time, but date is rather lacking in that department.

File a bug.
