[c++] How to use QueryPerformanceCounter?

I use these defines:

/** Use to init the clock */
#define TIMER_INIT \
    LARGE_INTEGER frequency; \
    LARGE_INTEGER t1,t2; \
    double elapsedTime; \
    QueryPerformanceFrequency(&frequency);


/** Use to start the performance timer */
#define TIMER_START QueryPerformanceCounter(&t1);

/** Use to stop the performance timer and output the result to the standard stream. Less verbose than \c TIMER_STOP_VERBOSE */
#define TIMER_STOP \
    QueryPerformanceCounter(&t2); \
    elapsedTime=(float)(t2.QuadPart-t1.QuadPart)/frequency.QuadPart; \
    std::wcout<<elapsedTime<<L" sec"<<endl;

Usage (brackets to prevent redefines):

TIMER_INIT

{
   TIMER_START
   Sleep(1000);
   TIMER_STOP
}

{
   TIMER_START
   Sleep(1234);
   TIMER_STOP
}

Output from usage example:

1.00003 sec
1.23407 sec
