      Known subclasses: twisted.protocols.basic.Int16StringReceiver, twisted.protocols.basic.Int32StringReceiver, twisted.protocols.basic.Int8StringReceiver
Generic class for length prefixed protocols.
| Instance Variable | structFormat | format used for struct packing/unpacking. Define it in subclass. (type: str) | 
  
| Instance Variable | prefixLength | length of the prefix, in bytes. Define it in subclass, using 
struct.calcsize(structFormat) (type: int) | 
  
| Method | stringReceived | Override this for notification when each complete string is received. | 
| Method | lengthLimitExceeded | Callback invoked when a length prefix greater than 
MAX_LENGTH is received.  The default implementation 
disconnects the transport. Override this. | 
  
| Method | dataReceived | Convert int prefixed strings into calls to stringReceived. | 
| Method | sendString | Send a prefixed string to the other end of the connection. | 
| Instance Variable | _unprocessed | bytes received, but not yet broken up into messages / sent to 
stringReceived.  _compatibilityOffset must be updated when this value is 
updated so that the recvd attribute can be generated 
correctly. (type: bytes) | 
  
| Instance Variable | _compatibilityOffset | the offset within _unprocessed to the next message to be 
parsed. (used to generate the recvd attribute) (type: int) |

  struct.calcsize(structFormat) (type: int)
  _unprocessed to the next message to be 
parsed. (used to generate the recvd attribute) (type: int)
  Override this for notification when each complete string is received.
| Parameters | string | The complete string which was received with all framing (length prefix, 
etc) removed. (type: bytes) | 
Callback invoked when a length prefix greater than 
MAX_LENGTH is received.  The default implementation 
disconnects the transport. Override this.
| Parameters | length | The length prefix which was received. (type: int) | 
Convert int prefixed strings into calls to stringReceived.
Send a prefixed string to the other end of the connection.
| Parameters | string | The string to send.  The necessary framing (length prefix, etc) will be 
added. (type: bytes) |
