[netCDFJava #WHR-919836]: Problem reading grib2 files in memory

Hi Adrian,

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention.  We believe we have 
implemented a solution in our latest release (4.3.16), though it is not tested, 
and we would appreciate your feedback on it.  Note that, due to the nature of 
grib files and their associated tables (as opposed to a self-contained dataset 
such as NetCDF), the netcdf-java code will still need to maintain ncx and gbx9 
files on disk.

Cheers,
