    + * This is the base implementation of a NiFi input operator. 
    + * Subclasses should implement the methods which convert NiFi DataPackets 
to tuples and emit them.
    + * <p>
    + * Ports:<br>
    + * <b>Input</b>: No input port<br>
    + * <b>Output</b>: Can have any number of output ports<br>
    + * <br>
    + * Properties:<br>
    + * None<br>
    + * <br>
    + * Compile time checks:<br>
    + * Classes derived from this have to implement the abstract methods 
emitTuples(List<T> tuples)&nbsp;
    + * and createTuple(DataPacket dp)<br>
    + * <br>
    + * Run time checks:<br>

    shouldn't be able to get an infinite loop... transaction.receive() will 
return null when there is no matter data to pull, or when it is has pulled the 
maximum number of data packets for a transaction (configured on the 
site-to-site client)
