Constructor Detail

AngleUnits

protected AngleUnits(java.lang.String fullName,
                     java.lang.String shortName)

This constructor specifies the canonical units. These are the units that AMeasure.itsValue is actually stored in.

example: MassUnits kg = new MassUnits("kilograms","kg");

Parameters:

fullName - the full name of the units (ex. "kilometers")

shortName - the abreviated name of the units (ex. "km")

AngleUnits

protected AngleUnits(double theValue,
                     AngleUnits theUnits,
                     java.lang.String fullName,
                     java.lang.String shortName)

This constructor specifies units other than the canonical units. Other units must be specified in terms of either the canonical units or other previously specified units.

example: MassUnits mg = new MassUnits(1000.0, kilograms,"miligrams","mg");

Parameters:

theValue - value of new units in terms of specified units

theUnits - the specified units

fullName - the full name of the units (ex. "kilometers")

shortName - the abreviated name of the units (ex. "km")
