digitalmars.D.learn - string to time conversion (when string contains time but no date)

reply Timothee Cour via Digitalmars-d-learn <digitalmars-d-learn puremagic.com> writes:
is there a way to convert a string representing a time (without date) to a
time, eg:

auto t = "19:03:40.143656";
auto a=SysTime.fromTimeString(t); // doesn't exist


My current workaround is to append a dummy date before and then
calling SysTime.fromSimpleString.

Is there a better way? seems needed
