Interface Streamable

public interface Streamable

Streamable interface enables a resource adapter to extract data from an input Record or set data into an output Record as a stream of bytes.

The Streamable interface provides a resource adapter's view of the data that has been set in a Record instance by a component.

The Streamable interface is not directly used by a component. It is used by a resource adapter implementation. A component uses Record or any derived interfaces to manage records.
