/**
* Pure java library for read-only access to CDF (NASA Common Data Format)
* files.
*
* <p>For low-level access to the record data of a CDF file, use the
* {@link uk.ac.bristol.star.cdf.CdfReader} class.
* For high-level access to the variables and attributes that form
* the CDF data and metadata, use the
* {@link uk.ac.bristol.star.cdf.CdfContent} class.
*
* <p>The package makes extensive use of NIO buffers for mapped read-on-demand
* data access, so should be fairly efficient for reading scalar records
* and whole raw array records. Convenience methods for reading shaped
* arrays may be less efficient.
*
* <p>This package is less capable than the official JNI-based
* java interface to the CDF C library (read only, less flexible data read
* capabilities), but it is pure java (no native code required) and it's
* also quite a bit less complicated to use.
