Question Formatted output with g++


How do I get doubles to display with the resolution I want?

setprecision does not work. Here is an example program:

Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
   double d=0.;
   for (int i=0; i<10; i++)
   {
      d += 0.5;
      cout << setw(12) << setprecision(6) << d << endl;
   }
}
The output looks like this:
Code:
         0.5
           1
         1.5
           2
         2.5
           3
         3.5
           4
         4.5
           5
I want to display the trailing 000's
