Some questions:

1) Apparently, NXTypedStreams are not structural extensions of NXStreams.
If you have a pointer to an NXTypedStream, can you find the NXStream
associated with it? DL says repeatedly that NXTypedStream is private, and
I can't find any functions that do this.

2) If you do have pointers to both structures, can you read some objects
using the TypedStream functions, then read a bunch of bytes using NXRead
or NXScanf (which take NXStream*), then read some more objects with the
TypedStream functions? Will this mess up any kind of coherency that may
be required in the two structs?

I'm trying to read strings associated with objects, without committing them
to the heap, as NXReadType does with "*".
