Ramesh

i wasn't in the office fri, reason for the delayed response.  the src is
located in the ftp directory, one can make the java docs from it. it's
located at;

% ftp unidata.ucar.edu
% cd pub/netcdf-java/v2.2
% get ncSrc-2.2.09.zip netcdfAll-2.2.09.zip


the directory netcdf-java-2.2/src/ucar/nc2/iosp/grib could be used as an
example isop for your development.

in the root dir, do

% ant -p

for the available options.


also, one can test out the code with webstart. it's at:

http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/netcdf-java/v2.2/webstart/index.html
