[CPMD-list] How to migrate a 32-bit RESTART file to 64-bit

[Juerg Hutter]

Hi

I just made a quick test. This combination of compilers/
architechtures allows for an exchange of binary RESTART
files with the default settings.

Intel(R) Fortran Compiler for 32-bit applications, Version 7.1
pgf77 6.0-5 64-bit target on x86-64 Linux

what was the compination of compilers/settings that didn't
work?

regards

Juerg Hutter
