The gob docs state that a gob stream consists of
(byteCount (-type id, encoding of a wireType)* (type id, encoding of a
value))*
I was expecting byteCount to be the number of bytes remaining in the entire
packet, but that does not seem to be the case. For example when encoding a
single instance of "struct Number { X int }", the gob stream is
0000000 1a ff 81 03 01 01 06 4e 75 6d 62 65 72 01 ff 82
0000010 00 01 01 01 01 58 01 04 00 00 00 05 ff 82 01 06
0000020 00
The entire stream is 33 bytes, so I was expecting the first byte to be
0x20, but in fact it is 0x1a. Is this count exclusive of the "(-type id,
encoding of a wireType)*" segment?
