Why don't you give a code snippet that does what you want to do?

using namespace boost::units; class Test { public: void setX(quantity<si::length> const& x) { m_X = x; } private: quantity<si::length> m_X; }; int main(int, char const *[]) { typedef boost::units::us::foot_base::unit_type foot_unit; static const foot_unit foot; Test a; quantity<si::length> first (1.0 * si::meter); quantity<foot_unit> second(1.0 * foot); quantity<boost::units::si::meter_base_unit::unit_type> third (1.0 * si::meter); a.setX(first); a.setX(second); a.setX(third); return 0; }
