[infinispan-dev] Compressing Marshaller Wrapper

[Manik Surtani]

I think it makes more sense in the marshaller, simply because the compressed stream is useful elsewhere as well - such as the network, etc.

It may look a little confusing as a result, but have a look at the AbstractMarshaller which should help simplify things.  Further, look at the VersionAwareMarshaller, which is the entry point into the marshalling system.
