/** @file Units.hh This file contains thin wrappers around
 * UDUNITS-2 objects. Nothing fancy. The only purpose is to simplify
 * memory management for objects that are stored as data members of
 * other C++ classes.
 *
 * One thing is worth mentioning, though: in UDUNITS-2, every ut_unit
 * object contains a pointer to the unit system that was used to create it.
 *
 * We use C++ shared pointers to make sure that the system a
 * Unit instance needs is allocated during the whole life span of
 * this instance. (De-allocating the unit system too early results in
 * having a "dangling" pointer.)
