/** represents an input stream that contains a stream of values representing an
	instance of a SQL structured or distinct type.
	
	
	<p>
	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.
	</p>
	<p>
	When the method 
	<code>getObject</code>
	is called with an object of a service implementing the interface 
	<code>SQLData</code>
	, the SDBC driver calls the method 
	<member scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XSQLData::getSQLType()</member>
	to determine the SQL type of the user-defined type (UDT) being custom mapped.
	The driver creates an instance of 
	<type scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XSQLInput</type>
	,
	populating it with the attributes of the UDT. The driver then passes the input
	stream to the method 
	<member scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XSQLData::readSQL()</member>
	, which in turn calls the 
	<code>XSQLInput.readXXX</code>
	methods in its implementation for reading the attributes from the input stream.
