Comment from the back row: Some people will want automatic conversions. Some people will want a compilation failure. Both are perfectly reasonable behaviors, and which one is appropriate is project specific.
If (either) units library fails to provide both capabilities, it will be unusable for some category of projects.
I don't know how to control this, nor what the interface should look like, but I am certain that a good units library will be able to go both ways.
What? By means of a Macro switch in the config header?
If we really need it, then better with a template parameter in the classes so that both can coexist Matthias
