// <synopsis> 
// StManColumnArrayAipsIO handles indirect arrays in a table column.
//
// An array (or section of an array) is only read when needed.
// It, however, caches the array shape using the helper class
// StIndArray. Pointers to these objects
// are maintained using the standard StManColumnAipsIO facilities.
// When the column gets written, the offsets in the StManArrayFile file
// get written. Those will be read back when the column is read in.
//
// When a row gets deleted or when the array gets bigger, the file space
// is lost. This storage manager is a simple one and no attempts
// are done to make it smart.
// </synopsis> 

//# <todo asof="$DATE:$">
