Description
The docs state: "the checksum of the bytes retrieved must match the SystemMetadata.checksum recorded in the Types.SystemMetadata if the object is science data". I think we can take out the "if the object is science data" part because the checksum needs to match regardless.
History
#1 Updated by Dave Vieglais over 12 years ago
- Status changed from New to Closed
There is the potential that science metadata checksums may change in the future (to support for example, a lossless translation to another format), but if they were to change then we'd need another mechanism to guarantee that the information content has not changed.
Comment was updated as suggested.
