/**
 * A multi-field numeric editor for displaying and editing a floating value
 * and an associated label.
 *
 * CAknUnitEditor is a multi-field numeric editor (MFNE), which is used for
 * displaying and editing floating point numeric data with a textual
 * label. Unit in the class name refers to a unit of measurement, for
 * example distance or speed, hence a typical use case might be an editor
 * which is used to edit an altitude value for a position in a GPS
 * application.
 *
 * Creating the editor is carried out by using either NewL() or
 * NewLC() function followed by a call to either ConstructL()
 * or ConstructFromResourceL() function. Note that if the editor is
 * not constructed fully, most functions will panic with KERN-EXEC 3.
 *
 * The value to be shown by the editor must be set at construction, and
 * can be later set using SetValue(). The current value of the editor
 * can be retrieved using Value().
 *
 * Minimum and maximum limits can be set using the function
 * SetMinimumAndMaximum(). NaN values for this function are
 * not supported, and will cause undefined behaviour.
 *
 * The editor supports a label shown next to the value. This label can be
 * set to a custom value (referred to as custom unit), or a set of
 * predefined and localized units can be used. See TAknUnitEditorUnits in
 * eikon.hrh and the two overloads of SetUnitL(). Note that the editor
 * discards the custom unit when a localized unit is set, so setting
 * the localized unit back to EAknUnitEditorCustomUnit clears
 * the unit.
 *
 * The editor supports variable number of fractional digits. A value
 * with no fractional part at all can also be displayed and edited. This
 * feature can be used with the function SetMaxFractionalDigits(), and
 * the corresponding getter MaxFractionalDigits(). Values set using
 * construction functions or SetValue() are rounded to correspond
 * with the number of fractional digits, so data loss may occur in such
 * case.
 *
 * The editor also supports an uninitialized state, which in practice means
 * that it can have nothing to display and in such case contains a
 * 'not a number' (NaN) value. This state can be allowed by the using the flag
 * EAknUnitEditorAllowUninitialized, found in TAknUnitEditorFlags in
 * eikon.hrh. For more information about NaN, see Math::IsNaN() and
 * TRealX::SetNaN().
