```
public interface IOServiceProvider
```
This is the service provider interface for the low-level I/O access classes (read only). This is only used by service implementors. The NetcdfFile class manages all registered IOServiceProvider classes. When NetcdfFile.open() is called:
1. the file is opened as a ucar.unidata.io.RandomAccessFile;
2. the file is handed to the isValidFile() method of each registered IOServiceProvider class (until one returns true, which means it can read the file).
3. the open() method on the resulting IOServiceProvider class is handed the file.

  - isValidFile
```
boolean isValidFile(RandomAccessFile raf)
             throws java.io.IOException
```
    Check if this is a valid file for this IOServiceProvider. You must make this method thread safe, ie dont keep any state.
    
    Parameters:
    
    raf - RandomAccessFile
    
    Returns:
    
    true if valid.

          CancelTask cancelTask)
   throws java.io.IOException
```
    Open existing file, and populate ncfile with it. This method is only called by the NetcdfFile constructor on itself. The provided NetcdfFile object will be empty except for the location String and the IOServiceProvider associated with this NetcdfFile object.
    
    Parameters:
    
    raf - the file to work on, it has already passed the isValidFile() test.
    
    ncfile - add objects to this empty NetcdfFile
