/**
 *  <p>Provides functionality to decode a pdb formatted file into
 *  a <code>PalmDB</code> object given a file input stream</p>
 *
 *  <p>Sample usage:</p>
 *
 *  <p><blockquote><pre>
 *     PDBDecoder decoder = new PDBDecoder("sample.pdb");
 *     PalmDB palmDB = decoder.parse();
 *  </pre></blockquote></p>
 *
 *  <p>Refer to the
 *  <a href="http://starlite.eng/zensync/eng/converters/palmfileformats.pdf">
 *  Palm file format specification</a> for details on the pdb format.</p>
 *
 *  <p>This decoder has the following assumptions on the pdb file ...</p>
 *  <ol>
 *  <li><p>There is only one RecordList section in the pdb.</p></li>
 *  <li><p>The record indices in the RecordList are sorted in order, i.e. the
 *      first record index refers to record 0, and so forth.</p></li>
 *  <li><p>The raw records in the record section are sorted as well in order,
 *      i.e. first record comes ahead of second record, etc.</p></li>
 *  </ol>
 *
 *  Other decoders assume these as well.
