current datetime in QString?

Question

so far im using:

QTime time = QTime::currentTime();
QString formattedTime = time.toString("hh:mm:ss");
QByteArray formattedTimeMsg = formattedTime.toLocal8Bit();

how do i change this to have date and time as "DD.MM.YYYY hh:mm:ss"?

Answer 1

QDateTime date = QDateTime::currentDateTime();
QString formattedTime = date.toString("dd.MM.yyyy hh:mm:ss");
QByteArray formattedTimeMsg = formattedTime.toLocal8Bit();

qDebug() << "Date:"+formattedTime;
