55 // <synopsis>
56 // RawIO is a specialization of class TypeIO to store
57 // data in local format.
58 // <p>
59 // This class is intended for data that will only be used internally
60 // and will not be exported to machines with a possible different
61 // data format.
62 // <p>
63 // To save storage Bools will be written as bits (using the
64 // static functions in class <linkto class=Conversion>Conversion</linkto>.
65 // </synopsis>
66 
67 // <motivation>
68 // Storing data in local format can improve performance on
69 // little-endian machines like DEC-alpha and PC's.
70 // </motivation>
