Hi,

I'm am developing a tool using OpenEXR. I use the MultiPartOutputFile API
because I will eventually support multi-part files. As an initial test, I
tried writing a single part file with the multi-part API. I didn't want to
implement two different interfaces, so I didn't use the single-part API.

In the function GenericOutputFile::writeMagicNumberAndVersionField, called
by the constructor of MultiPartOutputFile, a special check is made for
(parts == 1). If it's the case (it was for me), headers[0].type() is
called. Unlike the other types of files, MultiPartOutputFile does not set
the file type to SCANLINEIMAGE. As a result, the attribute is not set, and
causes a crash.

A workaround consists of manually calling SetType(SCANLINEIMAGE) after
creating the header. However, to avoid that someone get into the same
issue, I suggest that MultiPartOutputFile should be set to SCANLINEIMAGE by
default, like it's the case for the other API.

Thanks
