Nono. You misunderstand. The last header is the name of trailing field, which
can be any string without an "=" or newline in it. The difference was before it
would assume it had a trailing field if the last header was not EndMessage. Now
it will assume it has a trailing field only if it has a DataLength and that is
larger then 0.
So you still read the message until you come across a field without a value, ie
name1=value
DataLength=value
name3=value
name4
<stop here>
The difference is, before it would check !name4.equals("EndMessage") to see if
there was a trailing. Now it reads to see if any of the fields is DataLength
and larger then 0.
