// TestByte is a demonstration of subclassing a class in the hierarchy of
// DODS data types. It does not do much of anything - a real subclass would
// add specifics for an API or format (e.g., a read mfunc for netcdf, HDF,
// ...).  The class is used by some of the test code (hence the name) as well
// as serving as a template for others who need to subclass the hierarchy. 
//
// Since the class Byte is an abstract class (as are all the other
// `variable type' classes), the hierarchy *must* be subclassed in order to
// be used.
//
// jhrg 1/12/95
//
// NB: It is no longer true that Byte, ..., Grid are abstract classes. They
// are now concrete ad do not necessarily need to be subclassed. 01/22/03 jhrg
