/** 
 * A specialized <code>ObjectInputStream</code> that gets class description
 * information from a <code>ClassCatalog</code>. It is used by
 * <code>SerialBinding</code>.
 * <p>
 * This class is used instead of an {@link ObjectInputStream}, which it
 * extends, to read an object stream written by the {@link SerialOutput} class.
 * For reading objects from a database normally one of the serial binding
 * classes is used. {@link SerialInput} is used when an {@link ObjectInputStream} is needed along with compact storage. A {@link ClassCatalog} must be supplied, however, to stored shared class descriptions.
