    Hi James,
    
    One question:
    
    In PDataType.java,
    
      public abstract Object toObject(byte[] bytes, int offset, int length, 
PDataType actualType,
          SortOrder sortOrder, Integer maxLength, Integer scale);
    
    What does "SortOrder sortOrder, Integer maxLength, Integer scale" mean here?
    
    -------------------
    
    I'd like to take the second solution, which introduces a new type 
PNumericType. 
    
    So in PNumericType, we have an abstract function getSign, which is like 
function toObject in PDataType, which we implement the details in each 
subclass, PInteger, PFloat etc.
    
    How about the solution above?
    
    Thanks.
