[Boost-users] [units] Creating specific unit quantities

Subject: [Boost-users] [units] Creating specific unit quantities

In the Boost Unit documentation there are examples on creating 
quantities using a dimension.  There doesn't seem to be any 
documentation on using a specific type of dimension as a quantity.  Is 
it possible to create a quantity with a specific type of dimension value?

using namespace boost::units;
using namespace boost::units::si;

quantity<length> L = 2.0*meters;

//Is it possible to have meters instead of length as a quantity?
quantity<???> L = 2.0 * meters;
