Here's the implementation I use:
/*
This function is necessary to overcome the fact that an
ostream operator<< is not supplied for the built in type
__int64.
*/
template <class _E, class _Tr>
inline basic_ostream<_E, _Tr>& __cdecl operator<<( basic_ostream<_E, _Tr>& _O, __int64 i64Val)
{
wchar_t wchBuf[32];
// VC5BUG: _i64tow cannot handle negative numbers
if (i64Val < 0)
{
_O << _U("-");
i64Val *= -1;
}
return (_O << _i64tow(i64Val, wchBuf, 10)) ;
}
