If all else fails, you can reinterpret_cast it to integer and handle the bits yourself?

First, a nitpick: VC++ is a compiler toolchain (including libraries), not just an IDE.

Also, the next sentence:

    So, you either need *custom printing code* or you need to wait for Dev 14 which has improved printing code.
