Synopsis

A MVBaseline is a 3-vector of Baselines in a rectangular frame with internal units of m.
It can be constructed with:

MVBaseline() creates point at origin (0,0,0)
MVBaseline(MVBaseline) creates a copy
MVBaseline(MVPosition) creates (x,y,z) from the given position
MVBaseline(Double, Double, Double) creates (x,y,z) with specified values (assuming meters)
MVBaseline(Quantity length,Double, Double) creates a MVBaseline assuming that the two values are (in radians) angle along 'equator' and towards 'pole'.
MVBaseline(Quantity length, Quantity, Quantity) creates a MVBaseline assuming angles as in previous, or Baselines
MVBaseline(Quantity, Quantum<Vector<Double> >) creates a MVBaseline from angle vector, using first two angles, and assuming second as zero if not present.
MVBaseline(Quantum<Vector<Double> > creates from angles or Baselines, depending on the units in the quantum vector. In the angle case, the data derived can be scaled with the readjust() function. If the unit of the quantum vector is length, Baseline is assumed.
MVBaseline(Vector<Double> creates from angles (less than or equal to two elements) or x,y,z (3 elements).
MVBaseline(Vector<Quantity> creates from length+angles, angles, or x,y,z, depending on units.
MVBaseline(MVPosition, MVPosition) creates a baseline pointing from second to first MVPosition
MVBaseline(MVPosition) creates a baseline as defined by the position given (e.g. as derived from an offset MPosition)

A void adjust(Double) function normalises the vector to a length of 1; a get() returns as a Double 3-vector the length and angles of the Baseline vector; a getAngle() returns a Quantum 2-vector, (uInt) returns the indicated element, and getValue returns the vector.
Baselines can be added and subtracted.
The multiplication of two Baselines produces the in-product.

Example
