Description
Formats a measurement and its conversion unit into a human-readable string.
Call ConvUnitToStr to obtain a string representation of a measurement.
AValue is the number of units.
AType is the conversion type (unit of measurement).
ConvUnitToString formats the result as the string representation of AValue followed by the description that was provided when AType was registered. Thus, for example,
ConvUnitToStr(3.5, duMiles)
returns the string "3.5 Miles"
Warning: The resulting string may seem awkward, depending on the description provided when registering the conversion type. For example, ConvUnitToStr(53, duFahrenheit) produces the string "53 Fahrenheit", not "53 degrees Fahrenheit".
