Integration

Guides for integrating mp-units with existing codebases, custom types, third-party libraries, and various compiler environments.

Available Guides

• Working with Legacy Interfaces - Integrate with existing code that uses raw numeric types
• Using Custom Representation Types - Define your own numeric types as quantity representations
• Using a Linear Algebra Library - Use Eigen, GLM, or Blaze vector/matrix types as representations via the shipped plugins
• Converting to and from External Quantity Types - Bridge with strong types, other units libraries, and std::chrono
• Wide Compatibility - Maximize portability across different compilers and environments

When to Use These Guides

Use these integration guides when you:

• Need to integrate mp-units into existing codebases
• Work with legacy APIs expecting raw numeric types
• Want to use custom numeric types (fixed-point, arbitrary precision, etc.)
• Need interoperability with other libraries
• Target multiple compilers or environments
• Require maximum portability and compatibility
