Hi,

  in order to measure real time and CPU time you can use TStopwatch (http://root.cern.ch/root/html/TStopwatch.html), whose usage is straightforward:

TStopwatch t;
t.Start();
// your code goes here
t.Stop();
t.Print();

Instead, if you want to get current date and time, you can use TTimeStamp (http://root.cern.ch/root/html/TTimeStamp.html):

TTimeStamp ts;
cout << ts.AsString() << endl;

Cheers,
