The filesystem::trivial_clock type is implementation-defined [1]. That means that the epoch is also implementation-defined. How do we determine the epoch of trivial_clock? For instance, we may need to represent the last_write_time() timestamp to the end-user, or transfer it to another node when we implement a network file system. PS: I am looking at the std::filesystem proposal, but I assume that boost::filesystem will be update accordingly. [1] http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2014/n4097.html#8
