[Insight-developers] itkVTKImageIO2Test and VS6

[Bill Lorensen]

Gabe,

All fixed.

Also, I fixed VTKImageIO2 so that it uses double for swapping if
uint64 is not present. The old VTKImageIO always used double. Both
Borland and VS6 now pass the tests.

And, when you print exceptions, always print the exception itself and
not just the description. The foll printout has more info (like the
line # where the error exception was thrown).
