Detailed Description

AOF message codec.

It provides various AOF encoding and decoding functions, and implements dba_file reading and writing of AOF files.

AOF records can be read, written and interpreted into a dba_msg. Encoding from a dba_msg is not yet implemented. A "makeaof" tool exists, not part of DB-All.e, that can convert BUFR messages into AOF.

Endianness of the written records can be controlled by the environment variable DBA_AOF_ENDIANNESS:

• ARCH writes using the host endianness
• 
  LE writes using little endian
• 
  BE writes using big endian

If the environment variable is not set, the default is to write using the host endianness.
