[netCDFJava #TVY-105237]: Using NcML to read HDF5 files in IDV



Hi Dave:

There are some bugs in dealing with groups. I fixed enough so that this should 
now work with the latest (4.0.28) release, attached is an NcML file for the 
first file.  Im guessing that you want to aggregate the two files together? Ill 
have to look at that after christmas.

As for lower case "c" in NcML, I dunno, how do these damn things happen ??!!

happy holidays!
