- The high-level API Packet Table (PT) did not write data correctly when
the datatype is a compound type that has string type as one of the
members. This problem started in 1.8.15, after the fix of HDFFV-9042
was applied, which caused the Packet Table to use native type to access
the data. It should be up to the application to specify whether the

+ buffer to be read into memory is in the machine's native architecture.
Thus, the PT is fixed to not use native type but to make a copy of the
user's provided datatype during creation or the packet table's datatype
during opening. If an application wishes to use native type to read the
data, then the application will request that. However, the Packet Table
doesn't provide a way to specify memory datatype in this release. This
feature will be available in future releases, HDFFV-10023.
