Description:
When using the scale-offset filter with floating point data or fill values, big
endian machines would save some metadata in the wrong byte order. This caused
such datasets to yield incorrect data when read on little endian machines.
Fixed the scale-offset filter to always save this metadata in the right byte order (i.e. little endian).
Tested: jam, amani, heiwa (h5committedt); fedora, linew
Tested platform:
Kagiso only since it is only a comment block change. If it works in one
machine, it should work in all, I hope. Still need to check the parallel
build on copper.
Description: cross_read.c is a new program to test reading data created
on an OpenVMS, a little-endian, and a big-endian machine. The three
data files are vms_data.h5, be_data.h5, and le_data.h5. To generate
these data files, run gen_cross.c on these machines and change the file
names.
Platforms tested: fuss and h5committest
Misc. update: MANIFEST
