Use this method to translate to a higher-level message. Usually, some callback will be made upon the receipt of each complete protocol message.
Parameters | |
data | a string of indeterminate length. Please keep in mind that you will probably need to buffer some data, as partial (or multiple) protocol messages may be received! I recommend that unit tests for protocols call through to this method with differing chunk sizes, down to one byte at a time. |
