Typedef Documentation

compound_conversion_factor

template<ConversionFactorType Cf, ConversionFactorType... Cfs>

using units::compound_conversion_factor = typename detail::compound_impl<Cf, Cfs...>::type

Represents a conversion factor made up from other conversion factors.

Compound conversion factors are formed by multiplying all the conversion factor template arguments. Types provided must inherit from conversion_factor. A compound conversion factor can be formed from any number of other conversion factors, and unit manipulators like inverse and squared are supported. E.g. to specify acceleration, one could declare using acceleration = compound_conversion factor<length::meters, inverse<squared<seconds>>;

Template Parameters

Cf	conversion factor which, when multiplied together, form the desired compound conversion factor.
