+                 * in case you want to do other things with your stream.  It will
+                 * automatically skip NULL byte spacing between packets, which makes

+                 * can read the entire object in one operation.  If it fails to read
+                 * a complete packet in one call, it will keep the data it's read so
+                 * far buffered and return NULL, ready for another attempt.  You can
+                 * use the function hasReadBuffer() to deterimne if readObject()
+                 * has read part of an object packet or not.  If readObject returns
+                 * non-null then hasReadBuffer should return false on it's next call.
