This code ideally has to operate with C# code on the other side of the
socket that uses the DeserializeWithLengthPrefix() method call. The
message originates in C++ environment on a linux box and terminates in
C# environment on a windows PC. Why doesn't C++ support the same
methods as C#? The only document that I've seen that has list of
methods available is the message.h header file, installed into my
Linux usr directory.
