Detailed Description

Defines the pure virtual methods declared in Pulsar::Archive.

This class is designed to make it easier to develop new objects of type Pulsar::Archive. It is a minimal implimentation of the Pulsar::Archive class that defines a set of variables which can be used to store the important information required by the Pulsar::Archive class. It also defines most of the pure virtual methods required. If a user wishes to work with data from a new instrument, they can start with the BasicArchive class and simply define the load and unload functions to perform file I/O. This should simply be a matter of reading from the file and plugging information into the variables defined in this class. It is possible for the user to add as many more features to their new class as required.
