## Class TupleInputBinding

- java.lang.Object
- - com.sleepycat.bind.tuple.TupleInputBinding

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    EntryBinding<TupleInput>

      public class TupleInputBinding
      extends java.lang.Object
      implements EntryBinding<TupleInput>

  A concrete `EntryBinding` that uses the `TupleInput` object as the key or data object. A concrete tuple binding for key or data entries which are `TupleInput` objects. This binding is used when tuples themselves are the objects, rather than using application defined objects. A `TupleInput` must always be used. To convert a `TupleOutput` to a `TupleInput`, use the `TupleInput.TupleInput(TupleOutput)` constructor.
