Detailed Description

This module, native_endianness, was written by Dusan Jovic and has been adapted to GSI for internal translation of WRF ARW and NMM binary restart files as required to match the machine native endian storage format.

The original code only converted from big-endian to little-endian. There are no restrictions in this version. This is required for these two types of files, because they are read/written to using mpi-io, which has no compiler option for automatic switching to machine native endian format for fortran unformatted read/write.
