// <synopsis>
// MeasJPL is the interface class to the JPL DE planetary data.
// It has only static memebers.<br>
// Tables are found using the aipsrc 
// (using <src>measures.<table>.directory</src>)
// mechanism. If not provided they are assumed to reside in standard places
// (i.e. in $AIPSROOT/data/ephemerides) Tables are assumed to have the
// VS_VERSION, VS_DATE, VS_CREATE and VS_TYPE keywords, and be of type IERS,
// else an exception will be thrown.<br>
// The <src>get()</src> method will obtain data from the JPL planetary
// tables (i.e. the <src>DE200</src> and
// the <src>DE405</src> tables). The data obtained will be the barycentric
// position (AU) and velocity (AU/d) of planets; the nutation (rad, rad/d)
// or the libration (rad, rad/d; DE405 only). All in the J2000 system.<br>
// The JPL DE Tables have a large set of constants attach to it. Some
// will be available by their own special code, the others their filed name.
// (See the <src>get</src> functions.<br>
// The enumeration code gives the available data and planets. See
// E.M. Standish et al., JPL IOM 314.10 - 127 for further details.
// <br>
// Note that the normal usage of these tables is through the Measures system.
// 
// <note>
//      A message is Logged (once) if a table cannot be found.
//      A message is logged (once) if a date outside the range in
//      the Tables is asked for. 
// </note>
// <thrown>
//     <li> AipsError if table opened has wrong format or otherwise corrupted.
