How do you print a C++11 time_point?

Question

I\'ve created a time point, but I have been struggling to print it to the terminal.

#include 
#include 

int main(){

    //set

The nanoseconds seems to be part of the problem, looking at the documentation a bit I was able to get this to work:

#include 
#include 
#include 


int main(){

    //set time_point to current time
    std::chrono::time_point time_point;
    time_point = std::chrono::system_clock::now();

    std::time_t ttp = std::chrono::system_clock::to_time_t(time_point);
    std::cout << "time: " << std::ctime(&ttp);

    return 0;
}

Although it looks like std::chrono::microseconds works ok:

std::chrono::time_point time_point;
