Detailed Description

template<class Units, typename T = UNIT_LIB_DEFAULT_TYPE, template< typename > class NonLinearScale = linear_scale>
class units::unit_t< Units, T, NonLinearScale >

Container for values which represent quantities of a given unit.

Stores a value which represents a quantity in the given units. Unit containers (except scalar values) are not convertible to built-in c++ types, in order to provide type safety in dimensional analysis. Unit containers are implicitly convertible to other compatible unit container types. Unit containers support various types of arithmetic operations, depending on their scale type.

The value of a unit_t can only be changed on construction, or by assignment from another unit_t type. If necessary, the underlying value can be accessed using operator():

meter_t m(5.0);
double val = m(); // val == 5.0

.

Template Parameters
Unitsunit tag for which type of units the unit_t represents (e.g. meters)
Tunderlying type of the storage. Defaults to double.
NonLinearScaleoptional scale class for the units. Defaults to linear (i.e. does not scale the unit value). Examples of non-linear scales could be logarithmic, decibel, or richter scales. Non-linear scales must adhere to the non-linear-scale concept, i.e. is_nonlinear_scale<...>::value must be true.
