// <etymology>
// ISMBase is the base class of the Incremental Storage Manager.
// </etymology>

// <synopsis>
// The behaviour of this class is described in
// <linkto class="IncrementalStMan:description">IncrementalStMan</linkto>.

// <motivation>
// The public interface of ISMBase is quite large, because the other
// internal ISM classes need these functions. To have a class with a
// minimal interface for the normal user, class <src>IncrementalStMan</src>
// is derived from it.
// <br>IncrementalStMan needs an isA- instead of hasA-relation to be
// able to bind columns to it in class <linkto class=SetupNewTable>
// SetupNewTable</linkto>.
// </motivation>

// <todo asof="$DATE:$">
//# A List of bugs, limitations, extensions or planned refinements.
//   <li> Removed AipsIO argument from open and close.
// </todo>
