46/** is a stream which allows writing the data of persistent objects.

48	<p>Implementations of this service must fulfill the specifications of the
49	<type>DataOutputStream</type> service; futhermore, the stream needs to be chained to a
50	<type>XMarkableStream</type>. Therefore, it also provides the <type>XMarkableStream</type>
51	interface, but it delegates the calls to the chained object.
52	The written objects are held until this instance is destroyed.
53	The references to the objects are written as four-byte integers
54	and begin at 1. Data format is written: </p>
55	<pre>
56	short   InfoLength
57	long    ObjectReference // 0 indicates no object
58	UTF     ServiceName     // length of 0 indicates this is only a reference
59	long    ObjectLength    // 0 if it is a reference or no object, otherwise the len of the object data
60	Object  ObjectData      // the data of the object
