#3258: Problem with atan2 interface in Boost.Units

     Type:  Bugs                         |      Status:  new            
Milestone:  Boost 1.40.0                 |   Component:  units          
  Version:  Boost 1.39.0                 |    Severity:  Cosmetic       
 Keywords:  Units atan2                  |  
-----------------------------------------+----------------------------------
 The interface for atan2 in the Boost.Units cmath header seems overly
 restrictive.  Since the function implements atan(x/y), it seems the
 interface should only require that the dimensions of the quantities are
 the same not that both quantities are dimensionless.
