/**
 * Abstract superclass for all data messages used in communication with the TrafficCapture

 * encoding and decoding methods.\n
 * The implementation solution for message classes uses strategy and factory patterns.
 * Child classes containing definitions of real messages should implement the following:\n
 * 1. #GetId() method returning the message ID\n
 * 2. Member variables and methods for setting and getting message properties\n
 * 3. Methods for encoding and decoding message properties\n\n
 * There are two basic use cases how instances of can be used.\n
 * 1. When sending a message:\n
 * a. Create an instance of the class using its constructor\n
 * b. Initialize message values\n
 * c. Write the message to a socket stream using the #GetEncodedMessage() and 
 * #GetEncodedDataLength() methods\n\n
 * 2. When receiving a message:\n
 * a. Read the message header from a socket stream\n
 * b. Using the length information contained in the header, read the payload from the
 * socket stream\n
 * c. Instantiate the message using TrafficCaptureMessageFactory. The message instantiated
 * this way will be automatically decoded.\n
 * d. Read value data from the message
