- All Implemented Interfaces: 
- DataInput, ObjectInput, ObjectStreamConstants
- public class SerialInput- extends ObjectInputStream
A specialized ObjectInputStream that gets class description
 information from a ClassCatalog.  It is used by
 SerialBinding.
 
This class is used instead of an ObjectInputStream, which it
 extends, to read an object stream written by the SerialOutput class.
 For reading objects from a database normally one of the serial binding
 classes is used.  SerialInput is used when an ObjectInputStream is needed along with compact storage.  A ClassCatalog must be supplied, however, to stored shared class
 descriptions.
