You can already do this if you pass the --generate-ostream XSD
compiler option and then do:

#include <sstream>

xml_schema::date_time dt (...);

std::ostringstream ostr;
ostr << dt;
std::string str (ostr.str ());

If you are using Boost, you could also use lexical_cast:

std::string str (boost::lexical_cast<std::string> (dt));
