Subject: [Boost-users] [Units] How to use units from different systems
From: Juan José Icaza (icaza79_at_[hidden])

I am trying to use the boost::units library for the first time. I'm able
to use the SI system. However, I would like to use units from different
systems. Particularly, I would like to be able to write:
quantity<si::length> L = 3.0 * us::inch + 0.50 * si::meter;
The library comes with a us::inch_base_unit. But I don't know how to
create a us::inch unit. Any help is appreciated.
