I guess you need std::time function.

Edit:

Here's example how to output current time in asked format:

 #include <ctime>
 #include <iostream>

 int main()
 {
     std::time_t t = std::time(NULL);
     char mbstr[100];
     if (std::strftime(mbstr, 100, "%d/%m/%Y %T", std::localtime(&t))) {
         std::cout << mbstr << '\n';
     }
 }

I use this in my Project, hope it helps

time_t t;
t = time(NULL);

tm tlm;

localtime_s(&tlm, &t);
cout << tlm.tm_hour << tlm.tm_min ...

the struct tm is explained here: http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/ctime/tm/

Perhaps boost date-time is what you want.
