/**
 * The @Message annotation marks a SimpleBamService method as handling
 * a message.  BAM messages are unidirectional packets with a Serializable
 * payload addressed to a service.  The method signature is
 *
 *  * @Message
 * void message(String to, String from, MyMessage value)
 * 
 *
 * A ping error message handler would look like:
 *
 *  * @Message
 * public void pingMessage(String to, String from, MyPing value)
 * {
 *   System.out.println("Ping: " + value
 *                      + " {to:" + to + ", from:" + from + "}");
