[netCDFJava #TKT-143293]: Java API on String[] Attributes

Hi Steve:

a "release" always means from 

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf-java/

its the 4.1 release, check the version number in README to make sure its the 
right one.


we are still working on making our source build simpler, but basically you need 
to

svn checkout {root}/common/java/trunk to a directory "unidataCommon" at the 
same level as thredds

in your case it looks like that would be 

cd /d1/steves/ftp/

svn co http://svn.unidata.ucar.edu/repos/common/java/trunk unidataCommon
