Description

The gld_unit class is simply a cast of the UNIT structure.

convert

bool convert(char* name, double &value)
bool convert(UNIT* unit, double &value)
bool convert(gld_unit &unit, double &value): Convert a value given to a new unit.

get_a

double get_a(void): Retrieve the scalar of the unit.

get_b

double get_b(void): Retrieve the bias of the unit.

get_c

double get_c(void): Retrieve the exponent to the unit constant c.

get_e

double get_e(void): Retrieve the exponent to the unit constant e.

get_h

double get_h(void): Retrieve the exponent to the unit constant h.

get_k

double get_k(void): Retrieve the exponent to the unit constant k.

get_m

double get_m(void): Retrieve the exponent to the unit constant m.

get_name

char* get_name(void): Retrieve the name assigned to the unit.

get_next

gld_unit* get_next(void): Retrieve the next unit in the unit list.

get_prec

int get_prec(void): Retrieve the precision of the unit.

get_s

double get_s(void): Retrieve the exponent to the unit constant s.

gld_type

gld_type(char *name): Construct a unit handler.

is_last

bool is_last(void): Determine whether the unit is the last in the unit list.

UNIT

(UNIT*): Cast the gld_unit to a UNIT* pointer.

Version

The C++ Module API was introduced in Hassayampa (Version 3.0) to support multithreaded modules.
