    <p>Below is my code that replaces the DataInputStream to wrap an InputStream, but provides extra methods to read little endian data types in addition to the normal methods that read big endian types. Feel free to use it if you'd like.</p> <p>I have a few reservations as follows. Notice the methods that do not change functionality (the functions that read big endian types). There is no way I could implement the DataInputStream as the base class and use its methods, like read(), readInt(), readChar(), etc? </p> <p>My class hierarchy seems a little odd here. Is this appropriate?</p> <p>Do any of these other types like readUTF() or readLine() need a little endian version? Or is that subjective to specific programs?</p> <p>How does Java store boolean types? Is that subjective to endianness also?</p> <p>Thanks for satisfying my curiosities :)</p> <pre><code>import java.io.*; /** * Replacement for a DataInputStream that provides both little and big endian reading capabilities for convenience without need to implement a ByteBuffer * @author Bill (unspecified.specification@gmail.com) */ public class EndianInputStream extends InputStream implements DataInput { private DataInputStream dataInStream;

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
