/** This class wraps a cimcData value array.
      Index operations use the [] operator.
      Data extraction uses type conversion operators.
      Extraction operations can be appended to an array indexing operation
      like this:

        CimcString state;

 CimcArray states;

        states=ci.getProperty("States");

 state=states[3];

 Assignment statements use array indexing operations as well:

 states[5]="offline";

       Type mismatches will be signalled by exceptions.
