/**
 * An <code>OutputStream</code> with <code>DataOutput</code>-like methods for
 * writing tuple fields.  It is used by <code>TupleBinding</code>.
 *
 * <p>This class has many methods that have the same signatures as methods in
 * the {@link java.io.DataOutput} interface.  The reason this class does not
 * implement {@link java.io.DataOutput} is because it would break the interface
 * contract for those methods because of data format differences.</p>
 *
 * <p>Signed numbers are stored in the buffer in MSB (most significant byte
 * first) order with their sign bit (high-order bit) inverted to cause negative
 * numbers to be sorted first when comparing values as unsigned byte arrays,
 * as done in a database.  Unsigned numbers, including characters, are stored
 * in MSB order with no change to their sign bit.</p>
 *
 * <p>Strings and character arrays are stored either as a fixed length array of
 * unicode characters, where the length must be known by the application, or as
 * a null-terminated UTF byte array.</p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>Null strings are UTF encoded as { 0xFF }, which is not allowed in a
 * standard UTF encoding.  This allows null strings, as distinct from empty or
 * zero length strings, to be represented in a tuple.  Using the default
 * comparator, null strings will be ordered last.</li>
 * <li>Zero (0x0000) character values are UTF encoded as non-zero values, and
 * therefore embedded zeros in the string are supported.  The sequence { 0xC0,
 * 0x80 } is used to encode a zero character.  This UTF encoding is the same
 * one used by native Java UTF libraries.  However, this encoding of zero does
 * impact the lexicographical ordering, and zeros will not be sorted first (the
 * natural order) or last.  For all character values other than zero, the
 * default UTF byte ordering is the same as the Unicode lexicographical
 * character ordering.</li>
 * </ul>
 *
 * <p>Floats and doubles are stored in standard Java integer-bit representation
 * (IEEE 754). Non-negative numbers are correctly ordered by numeric value.
 * However, negative numbers are not correctly ordered; therefore, if you use
 * negative floating point numbers in a key, you'll need to implement and
 * configure a custom comparator to get correct numeric ordering.</p>
