containing all of the metadata included in the rdf file. rdf files are
generated by RiverWare and are documented in the
RiverWare documentation.

read.rdf2(iFile)
read_rdf(iFile, rdf = TRUE)
Arguments
iFile

rdf
Boolean; if TRUE, then an rdf object is returned. If FALSE,
then a character vector is returned.

Functions
read.rdf2: Deprecated version of read.rdf()
Details
read.rdf()uses data.table::fread() to read in the file, which provides
performance benefits as compared to earlier versions of the function.
read.rdf2() is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
