Since an outermost protobuf message does not include either a delimiter or a length, it is (for this scenario) necessary either to include your *own* message boundary mechanism, or for single messages just close the stream. The most common approach seems to be simply to include the length as a prefix. Some implementations provide simple ways of including this by default, but it depends on exactly how you want to represent it.
