Changes in version 2.56.0 Breaking changes o The default value for the `bit64conversion` argument in `H5Aread()` and `H5Dread()` has been set explicitly to `"int"`. Relying on a missing value or `"default"` results in a warning and will be disallowed in the next release cycle. Users should either specify `bit64conversion="int"` explicitly, or omit this argument entirely if they wish to use the provided default. Bug fixes o The value ordering (row-major vs column-major) is not correct when reading unsigned integers with `native=TRUE`. Thanks to Jared Lumpe for the report and detailed reproducible example: https://github.com/Huber-group-EMBL/rhdf5/issues/157.
