/**

@internalAll

Class to represent 8-bit descriptors.

This class implements a subset of 8-bit descriptor's behaviour, which are necessary 

for the externalization and internalization of 8-bit descriptors. It encapsulates 

the data members containing the data, its maximum length and actual length. It also 

provides member functions to append and reset the data, as well as get the pointer of 

the data. However, there is no method to partly modify the data.

The constructors, Set, Append, and assignment methods take a copy of the data they're 

given, which means it allocates memory to hold the data and releases it when needed.

Data represented by this class is treated as a contiguous set of 8-bit 

(i.e. single byte) values or data items.
