Breaking Changes: - Based on bitwise comparisons with other similar libraries and database software, we have changed the internal encoding of our IEEE 754-compliant types
Can you please give some more details about this change?
Yes; in May we had an issue opened by a developer making a similar Go package. He noticed that our encoded values had a difference in the high bits. After looking at IEEE 754-2019 again, I had made an error at the beginning of the library causing our encoding to be a mixture of of the two allowable encoding formats. Fortunately, correcting this was fairly straightforward, and we now have better testing against other libs. Matt
