 - Replace the commands to read data: `readBlockVectorData`, `readVectorData`, `readBlockScalarData`, `readScalarData` with a single command `readData`.
 - Replace the commands to write data: `writeBlockVectorData`, `writeVectorData`, `writeBlockScalarData`, `writeScalarData` with a single command `writeData`.
 - Replace the commands to write gradient data: `writeBlockVectorGradientData`, `writeVectorGradientData`, `writeBlockScalarGradientData`, `writeScalarGradientData` with a single command `writeGradientData`.
+- The signature of `readData`, `writeData` and `writeGradientData` has changed from `const int*`, `const double*`, and `double*` to `span<const VertexID>`, `span<const double>`, and `span<double>`. If necessary change the data object, e.g., from `double* forces = new double[vertexSize*dim]` to `std::vector<double> forces(vertexSize*dim)` and remove `.data()` in the function arguments.
 - Replace `getMeshVerticesAndIDs` with `getMeshVertexIDsAndCoordinates`. Change the input argument meshID to meshName.
 - Change integer input argument `meshID` to a string with the mesh name in the API commands `hasMesh`, `requiresMeshConnectivityFor`, `setMeshVertex`, `getMeshVertexSize`, `setMeshVertices`, `setMeshEdge`, `setMeshEdges`, `setMeshTriangle`, `setMeshTriangles`, `setMeshQuad`, `setMeshQuads`, `setMeshTetrahedron`, `setMeshTetrahedrons`, `setMeshAccessRegion`.
 - Change integer input argument `dataID` to string arguments mesh name and data name in the API commands `hasData`.
