 * Error checking rules: (for if you don't want to check every return code)
 * - Calling EndMessage() is optional, implied by Flush() or StartMessage().
 * - If you are sending just one message you only need to test Flush() == B_OK
 * - If you are buffering multiple messages without calling Flush() you must
 *   check EndMessage() == B_OK, or the last Attach() for each message.
 *   Check Flush() at the end.
 * - If you are reading, check the last Read() or ReadString() you perform.
