23.17.5.1 duration constructors [time.duration.cons]

template <class Rep2> constexpr explicit duration(const Rep2& r);
Remarks: This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless Rep2 is implicitly convertible to rep and
  • treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<rep> is true or
  • treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<Rep2> is false.
[Example
:
duration<int, milli> d(3);          // OK
duration<int, milli> d(3.5);        // error
end example
]
Effects: Constructs an object of type duration.
Postconditions: count() == static_­cast<rep>(r).
template <class Rep2, class Period2> constexpr duration(const duration<Rep2, Period2>& d);
Remarks: This constructor shall not participate in overload resolution unless no overflow is induced in the conversion and treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<rep> is true or both ratio_­divide<Period2, period>​::​den is 1 and treat_­as_­floating_­point_­v<Rep2> is false.
[Note
:
This requirement prevents implicit truncation error when converting between integral-based duration types.
Such a construction could easily lead to confusion about the value of the duration.
end note
]
[Example
:
duration<int, milli> ms(3);
duration<int, micro> us = ms;       // OK
duration<int, milli> ms2 = us;      // error
end example
]
Effects: Constructs an object of type duration, constructing rep_­ from
duration_­cast<duration>(d).count().
