+ * Provides "<<" (append) and ">>" (extract) operators to simplyfy
+ * adding/getting data items to/from a CAN message.
+ * Usage is similar to the C++ io-stream operators.
+ * Data length of CAN message is automatically updated when using "<<" or ">>" operators.
+ *
+ * See Wiki page <https://developer.mbed.org/users/hudakz/code/CAN_Hello/> for demo.
