Yes, it is strange! Why couldn't they just read in four doubles like the spec
says?!? Of course that is what I had to start but it didn't work. A coworker
has warned me that the spec cannot be relied on to implement OpenFlight and
this is showing me that he is right.
To make the test, I put different values in each box of the DOF dialog in
Creator so I'd know where the bits from each field ended up in the file. The
values were like 1.23456, 8.88888, and -10.9876544. Powers of two and of
course zero were not good tests.
OK, just making sure :-)
I've seen deviations from the spec in various MultiGen/Creator versions
over the years, but this is the weirdest one by far.
How do you detect it? Just check for nan after a regular read? That
wouldn't seem to be reliable enough...
