/**
* 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} methods. The reader methods
* ({@code readLong}, {@code readBytes}, and so on)
* provide a way for an implementation of the {@code SQLData}
* interface to read the values in an {@code SQLInput} object.
* And as described in {@code SQLData}, 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} is used to determine whether
* the last value read was SQL {@code NULL}.
* When the method {@code getObject} is called with an
* object of a class implementing the interface {@code SQLData},
* the JDBC driver calls the method {@code SQLData.getSQLType}
* to determine the SQL type of the user-defined type (UDT)
* being custom mapped. The driver
* creates an instance of {@code SQLInput}, populating it with the
* attributes of the UDT. The driver then passes the input
* stream to the method {@code SQLData.readSQL}, which in turn
* calls the {@code SQLInput} reader methods
* in its implementation for reading the
* attributes from the input stream.
