Header parsing fails when used inside the Fawkes Robot Software Framework

During my diploma-thesis I used Gazebo with the Fawkes Robot Software Framework and encountered the problem that the message headers were parsed incorrectly and thus no connection could be established.

I fixed this problem for my work by adjusting the ParseHeader function of the Connection class so that the header get limited to the defined HEADER_LENGTH by changing the argument of the istringstream to a limited substring.

Old:

#!c++

std::istringstream is(header);

New:

#!c++

std::istringstream is(header.substr(0,HEADER_LENGTH));

I had no problems using Gazebo otherwise, the error only occured when using it with Fawkes.
