Hi all, I need to run simulations that rely on several of my custom binary datafiles (written in 32 bit int and 64 bit doubles). These date files were generated from MATLAB. In my PETSc code I invoke PetscBinaryRead(...) into these binary files, which gives me mesh data, auxiliaries, etc.
However, when I now configure with quad precision (--with-precision=__float128 and --download-f2cblaslapack) my PetscBinaryRead() functions give me segmentation violation errors. I am guessing this is because I have binary files written in double precision but have PETSc which reads in quad precision, meaning I will be reading past the end of these files due to the larger strides. So my question is, is there a way to circumvent this issue? That is, to read double-precision binary data into a PETSc program configured with quad-precision? Otherwise I would have to rewrite or redo all of my datafiles, which I would prefer not to do if possible. Thanks, Justin
