I am thinking of adding another component, eg image, as follows:
xxxaaaaThis is a greeting.iiibbbbmmmmmmmm... where: xxx - message type (3 bytes, text) aaaa - integer, 4 bytes, length of text 'This is a greeting.' - the actual text iii - image type (png, gif) bbbb - image length mmmmmmmm... - image data I suppose your recommendation still stands, extract byte by byte.
Use a byte buffer as Miguel suggested. Extract byte by byte (or long by long). You'll have to deal with the little endian / big endian problem regardless of the language/stack you chose. If you have the latitude, don't use binary...
