#include <locale>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <boost/date_time/posix_time/posix_time.hpp>

std::string current_time_formatted()
{
    namespace bpt = boost::posix_time;

    static char const* const fmt = "%a, %d %b %Y %H:%M:%S GMT";
    std::ostringstream ss;
    // assumes std::cout's locale has been set appropriately for the entire app
    ss.imbue(std::locale(std::cout.getloc(), new bpt::time_facet(fmt)));
    ss << bpt::second_clock::universal_time();
    return ss.str();
}

See Date Time Input/Output for more information on the available format flags.
