id summary reporter owner description type status milestone component version severity resolution keywords cc 11336 units: base_unit_info name and symbol unavailable for absolute units Roger Leigh Matthias Schabel "absolute<> works for making temperatures absolute. However, it does not define a specialisation of the base_unit_info, so name_string and symbol_string are unavailable and some methods fails as a result. Please consider making absolute<> provide a base_unit_info specialisation which delegates to the wrapped unit type's base_unit_info, but adds an ""absolute "" prefix to both and can replace the ostream operator which works partially for the symbol case, but not the unit name which is completely absent. This will make absolute<> behave the same as a normal unwrapped unit." Bugs new To Be Determined units Boost 1.55.0 Problem
