> h2. Brief description
> large values with a first byte indicating at least 4 additional bytes shift an integer by at least 32bits thus leading to an overflow and an incorrect value - the value needs to be casted to long before the bitshift!

> UINT64 means real UINT64 encoded with the following scheme:
>   Size of encoding sequence depends from first byte:
>   First_Byte  Extra_Bytes        Value
>   (binary)   
>   0xxxxxxx               : ( xxxxxxx           )
>   10xxxxxx    BYTE y[1]  : (  xxxxxx << (8 * 1)) + y
>   110xxxxx    BYTE y[2]  : (   xxxxx << (8 * 2)) + y
>   ...
>   1111110x    BYTE y[6]  : (       x << (8 * 6)) + y
