// TSMCoordColumn handles a coordinate column for a Tiled
// Storage Manager.
// </etymology>
 
// <synopsis> 
// TSMCoordColumn is used by 
// <linkto class=TiledStMan>TiledStMan</linkto>
// to handle the access to
// a table column containing coordinates of a tiled hypercube axis.
// There are 2 types of coordinates (as described at
// <linkto class=TableDesc:defineHypercolumn>
// TableDesc::defineHypercolumn</linkto>):
// <ol>
//  <li> As a vector. These are the coordinates of the arrays held
//       in the data cells. They are accessed via the get/putArray
//       functions. Their shapes are dependent on the hypercube shape,
//       so it is checked if they match.
//  <li> As a scalar. These are the coordinates of the extra axes
//       defined in the hypercube. They are accessed via the get/put
//       functions.
// </ol>
// The coordinates are held in a TSMCube object. The row number
// determines which TSMCube object has to be accessed.
// <p>
// The creation of a TSMCoordColumn object is done by a TSMColumn object.
// This process is described in more detail in the class
// <linkto class=TSMColumn>TSMColumn</linkto>.
// </synopsis> 
 
// <motivation>
// Handling coordinate columns in the Tiled Storage Manager is
// different from other columns.
// </motivation>
