How do I get the current UTC offset (time zone)?

问题:

How do I get the current UTC offset (as in time zone, but just the UTC offset of the current moment)?

I need an answer like "+02:00".

There are two parts to this question:

1. Get the UTC offset as a boost::posix_time::time_duration
2. Format the time_duration as specified

Apparently, getting the local time zone is not exposed very well in a widely implemented API. We can, however, get it by taking the difference of a moment relative to UTC and the same moment relative to the current time zone, like this:

boost::posix_time::time_duration get_utc_offset() {     using namespace boost::posix_time;      // boost::date_time::c_local_adjustor uses the C-API to adjust a     // moment given in utc to the same moment in the local time zone.     typedef boost::date_time::c_local_adjustor<ptime> local_adj;      const ptime utc_now = second_clock::universal_time();     const ptime now = local_adj::utc_to_local(utc_now);      return now - utc_now; } 

---

Formatting the offset as specified is just a matter of imbuing the right time_facet:

std::string get_utc_offset_string() {     std::stringstream out;      using namespace boost::posix_time;     time_facet* tf = new time_facet();     tf->time_duration_format("%+%H:%M");     out.imbue(std::locale(out.getloc(), tf));      out << get_utc_offset();      return out.str(); } 

Now, get_utc_offset_string() will yield the desired result.

Since C++11 you can use chrono and std::put_time:

#include <chrono> #include <iomanip> #include <iostream> int main () {    using sc = std::chrono::system_clock;   auto tm = sc::to_time_t(sc::now());    std::cout << std::put_time(std::localtime(&tm), "formatted time: %Y-%m-%dT%X%z\n");    std::cout << "just the offset: " << std::put_time(std::localtime(&tm), "%z\n");  } 

This produces the following output:

formatted time: 2018-02-15T10:25:27+0100

just the offset: +0100
