That is just a keyword which is used to refer to attribute values, it does not define an attribute. There are two attributes you can use to generate timestamps: local_clock and utc_clock. If you add the latter, you get UTC time readings.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Hello,
Using the attribute:
BOOST_LOG_ATTRIBUTE_KEYWORD(timestamp, "TimeStamp", boost::posix_time::ptime)
is logging the local time.
What should I do to log the UTC time ?
Many thanks,
Daniel

Hello, can you provide an example?
The example is given in the linked page, just replace
attrs::local_clockwithattrs::utc_clock.
