  in netcdf.NetcdfFile:

  in netcdf.Variable:
  public Attribute getAttribute(java.lang.String name)

  then in Attribute:
  public java.lang.String getStringValue()

> nc_get_var1_int

  in netcdf.Variable:
  public int getInt(int[] index)

  in netcdf.Variable:
  public MultiArray copyout(int[] origin, int[] shape)
  
  then access with this MultiArray method:
  public int getShort(int[] index)
