This is a class for handling multidimensional arrays for
HDF.
The purpose is to allow the storage and retrieval of arbitrary array types containing scientific data.
The methods support the conversion of an array to and from Java to a one-dimensional array of bytes suitable for I/O by the C library.
This class heavily uses the HDFNativeData class to convert between Java and C representations.
