Hello, I'd like to convert from an SI length quantity to a US inches quantity. I believe the following snippet will do what I want it to, but wanted to clarify if that was the case: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_59_0/doc/html/boost_units/Quantities.html I am referencing the online docs, but needed some clarity in actually how to go about using it in practice: <code> using boost::units::si::meter_base_unit; using boost::units::us::inch_base_unit; // i.e. 0.3048 * 12 (inches/feet, feet/meter) BOOST_UNITS_DEFINE_CONVERSION_FACTOR(inch_base_unit, meter_base_unit, double, 3.6576); //... quantity<inch_unit> to_inches_length_quantity(quantity<length> const & L) { const quantity<inch_unit::unit_type> result_(L); return result_; } </code> Just besides that, there isn't a cleaner way of doing it? Some have mentioned going as far as creating a whole other system for my calculator's purposes, for example. Thank you... Best regards, Michael Powell
