Bascially the first thing I passed was an INT to identify the procedure and then since I knew the procedue I knew the number and types of parameters to pull out of the stream. It worked great, but I ended up using messages instead of RPC because messageas were faster. You might also be able to use a token to describe the end of the parameter list, or a value right at the start that descripe what is to follow. I am a little fuzzy about what you are trying to do that is impossible. Maybe you could describe in more detail the problem you are trying to solve?
