[netCDFJava #XBL-860979]: netcdfAll can not be used in Modules

Greetings!

Sorry for the delay. We have not explored modularized java at this point, 
although 
it is on our list. The class you mention is actually coming from a dependency 
needed
to read some GRIB files (JJ200). We sort of adopted that project, as it was 
abandoned
on Google Code quite some time ago. I'm happy to add that class (as well as 
JJ2KDecoder)
to see if that helps you get further along in the process. I'll try to knock 
this out
today, and will send you a link to a snapshot version of netcdfAll.jar.

Cheers,

Sean
