 * Exception indicating the failure of an object read operation due to

 * <ul>

 *   <li>An attempt was made to read an object when the next element in the

 *       stream is primitive data.  In this case, the OptionalDataException's

 *       length field is set to the number of bytes of primitive data

 *       immediately readable from the stream, and the eof field is set to

 *       false.

 *

 *   <li>An attempt was made to read past the end of data consumable by a

 *       class-defined readObject or readExternal method.  In this case, the

 *       OptionalDataException's eof field is set to true, and the length field

 *       is set to 0.
