How to use Measurements in Optim

[hzgzh]

Hi:
I want to use some Measurements variable in optim problem.
but have some error,how do I handle it,wish to get reply

using Measurements,Optim
f(x)=(1.0 - x[1])^2 + 100.0 * (x[2] - x[1]^2)^2
x=zeros(Measurement{Float64},2)
optimize(f,x)

MethodError: no method matching Float64(::Measurement{Float64})
Closest candidates are:
  Float64(::Real, !Matched::RoundingMode) where T<:AbstractFloat at rounding.jl:200
  Float64(::T) where T<:Number at boot.jl:715
  Float64(!Matched::Int8) at float.jl:60
  ...

Stacktrace:

Maybe @pkofod has some ideas 🙂

[hzgzh]

fine I will @pkofod

For reference, an issue has been opened in Optim.jl: JuliaNLSolvers/Optim.jl#823

sorry I did not see this issue. Will think about the feedback Mosè gave on the other issue.
