/** is used as an output stream for writing the attributes of a user-defined
    type back to the database.  This interface, used only for custom mapping,
    is used by the driver, and its methods are never directly invoked
    by a programmer.


    <p>
    When an object of a class implementing interface
    <type scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XSQLData</type>
    is passed as an argument to a SQL statement, the JDBC driver calls
    <method scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">SQLData::getSQLType</method>
    to determine the kind of SQL datum being passed to the database.
    <br/>
    The driver then creates an instance of
    <code>XSQLOutput</code>
    and passes it to the method
    <method scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XSQLData::writeSQL</method>
    . The method
    <code>writeSQL</code>
    in turn calls the appropriate
    <code>XSQLOutput.writeXXX</code>
    methods to write data from the
    <type scope="com::sun::star::sdbc">XSQLData</type>
    object to the
    <code>XSQLOutput</code>
    output stream as the representation of a SQL user-defined type.</p>
