Description
While investigating a build issue with fast_dds with boost >= 1.77 I discovered that
template
inline bool semaphore_timed_wait(sem_t * handle, const TimePoint & abs_time)
in boost/interprocess/sync/posix/semaphore_wrapper.hpp
Fails to compile[with TimePoint = boost::date_time::special_values.
I would expect that is case should compile if the value passed in is "boost::posix_time::pos_infin" as there is a special case in the function:
if (ipcdetail::is_pos_infinity(abs_time)) { ...}
However, several lines lower the folloing fails to compile due to a missing overload:
timespec tspec = timepoint_to_timespec(abs_time);
I am compiling with gcc 11.3.0 on RHEL8 and Pop!_OS 22.04
