/**
 * This class wraps different representations of a message. In its current
 * version is allows to specify binary data (as void*) with a size specifying
 * the number of bytes of data or an message object that can be
 * serialized if necessary. The main idea is, that simulation environments
 * do not necessarily need to serialize messages.
 *
 * For performance reasons methods of this class are inlined where possible!
