当前日期和时间作为字符串

I wrote a function to get a current date and time in format: DD-MM-YYYY HH:MM:SS. It works but let's say, its pretty ugly. How can I do exactly the same thing but simpler?

string currentDateToString()
{
    time_t now = time(0);
    tm *ltm = localtime(&now);

    string dateString = "", tmp = "";
    tmp = numToString(ltm->tm_mday);
    if (tmp.length() == 1)
        tmp.insert(0, "0");
    dateString += tmp;
    dateString += "-";
    tmp = numToString(1 + ltm->tm_mon);
    if (tmp.length() == 1)
        tmp.insert(0, "0");
    dateString += tmp;
    dateString += "-";
    tmp = numToString(1900 + ltm->tm_year);
    dateString += tmp;
    dateString += " ";
    tmp = numToString(ltm->tm_hour);
    if (tmp.length() == 1)
        tmp.insert(0, "0");
    dateString += tmp;
    dateString += ":";
    tmp = numToString(1 + ltm->tm_min);
    if (tmp.length() == 1)
        tmp.insert(0, "0");
    dateString += tmp;
    dateString += ":";
    tmp = numToString(1 + ltm->tm_sec);
    if (tmp.length() == 1)
        tmp.insert(0, "0");
    dateString += tmp;

    return dateString;
}

Non C++11 solution: with the header, you can use strftime.确保您的缓冲区足够大，您不希望它溢出并在以后造成严重破坏.

#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>

int main ()
{
  time_t rawtime;
  struct tm * timeinfo;
  char buffer[80];

  time (&rawtime);
  timeinfo = localtime(&rawtime);

  strftime(buffer,sizeof(buffer),"%d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S",timeinfo);
  std::string str(buffer);

  std::cout << str;

  return 0;
}
