Hi,
I'm a newbie on boost.
I've downloaded and used some features.

I couldn't find how to cast uuid into string.

#include "boost/date_time/gregorian/gregorian.hpp"
#include <boost/uuid/uuid.hpp>
#include <boost/uuid/uuid_generators.hpp>
#include <boost/uuid/random_generator.hpp>
#include <boost/uuid/string_generator.hpp>

...

date GeneratorUtils::getRandomDate() {
    int year, month ,day;
    day = rand() % 30;
    month = rand() % 12;
    year = 1980 + rand() % 25;
    string str_date = "" + day + month + year ;
    date d(from_simple_string(str_date));

    return d;

string GeneratorUtils::getRandomID(){

    random_generator gen;
    uuid u = gen();

    return u.uuid_to_string(); // ERROR
}


It does not accept any to_string() function. Is there a way to convert from uuid to string in C++?
(by the way, I can use the other things such as date d, uuid u etc.)
