No, this is something you'll need to implement yourself on top of the primitives provided. Either read one byte at a time until you get to the delimiter, or read into a buffer and handle the possibility of getting part of the next message also. I've deliberately avoided adding "read line", "read packet" or similar functions to the API - basically anything that actually looks at the bytes being sent on the port. This is because although there's some helpful functionality for this on some operating systems, there's nothing that can be reliably provided across all platforms. So the best way to implement any data-dependent processing is on top of the basic cross-platform primitives. We could have added helper functions for common cases like this, but I prefer to keep our API simple and leave the rest to the application, since there are many possible variations on the details.
