<P>
An <code>InputStream</code> with <code>DataInput</code>-like methods for
 reading tuple fields.  It is used by <code>TupleBinding</code>.

 <p>This class has many methods that have the same signatures as methods in
 the <A HREF="http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/io/DataInput.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in java.io"><CODE>DataInput</CODE></A> interface.  The reason this class does not
 implement <A HREF="http://download.oracle.com/javase/1.5.0/docs/api/java/io/DataInput.html?is-external=true" title="class or interface in java.io"><CODE>DataInput</CODE></A> is because it would break the interface
 contract for those methods because of data format differences.</p>
