Re: [Boost-users] [Units] Un-scaling dimensionless value

Hmm. Ideally, I'd love it if floating point conversions were only used when the value type is floating point; the rest of the time, an integer conversion or static assert if necessary could be used. But thanks for the insight into the current behavior.

Given that I wrote the code, yes I'm certain. The values can be too large to fit in an integer type (even long long).
