Here's my latest stab at a Vector implementation using boost geometry and units libraries. This seems like way too much work for way too little benefit. Perhaps, boost::units should be used only as an interface tool. Once you try to use aggregates like matrices and points, its use becomes cumbersome. terry ----- Original Message ----- From: "alfC" <alfredo.correa@gmail.com> Newsgroups: gmane.comp.lib.boost.user To: <boost-users@lists.boost.org> Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2010 4:28 AM Subject: Re: [units] subtract_typeof_helper<> help!

I'm trying to use boost::geometry and boost::units together. For some reason boost::geometry doesn't represent the difference of two points as vectors. So, I'm making my own Vector class and defining Vector = Point - Point. The sample program below doesn't compile because I need to tell the units library about the special properties of point subtraction (I think).
please post your solution if you find one. I have a similar problem. Alfredo
