/**
* An input stream that contains a stream of values representing an
* instance of an SQL structured type or an SQL distinct type.
* This interface, used only for custom mapping, is used by the driver
* behind the scenes, and a programmer never directly invokes
* <code>SQLInput</code> methods. The <i>reader</i> methods
* (<code>readLong</code>, <code>readBytes</code>, and so on)
* provide a way for an implementation of the <code>SQLData</code>
* interface to read the values in an <code>SQLInput</code> object.
* And as described in <code>SQLData</code>, calls to reader methods must
* be made in the order that their corresponding attributes appear in the
* SQL definition of the type.
* The method <code>wasNull</code> is used to determine whether
* the last value read was SQL <code>NULL</code>.
* <P>When the method <code>getObject</code> is called with an
* object of a class implementing the interface <code>SQLData</code>,
* the JDBC driver calls the method <code>SQLData.getSQLType</code>
* to determine the SQL type of the user-defined type (UDT)
* being custom mapped. The driver
* creates an instance of <code>SQLInput</code>, populating it with the
* attributes of the UDT. The driver then passes the input
* stream to the method <code>SQLData.readSQL</code>, which in turn
* calls the <code>SQLInput</code> reader methods
* in its implementation for reading the
* attributes from the input stream.
