Library
-------
+ - In v1.6 library, there was EOA for the whole MULTI file saved in the
+ super block. We took it out in v1.8 library because it's meaningless
+ for the MULTI file. v1.8 library saves the EOA for the metadata file,
+ instead. But this caused some backward compatibility problem.
+ v1.8 library couldn't open the file created with v1.6 library. We
+ fixed the problem by checking the EOA value to detect the file
+ created with v1.6 library. (SLU - 2011/6/22)
- When a dataset had filters and reading data failed, the error message
didn't say which filter isn't registered. It's fixed now. (SLU - 2011/6/3)
