/**
 * \class INDI::BaseClient
   \brief Class to provide basic client functionality.

   BaseClient enables accelerated development of INDI Clients by providing a framework that facilitates communication, device
   handling, and event notification. By subclassing BaseClient, clients can quickly connect to an INDI server, and query for
   a set of INDI::BaseDevice devices, and read and write properties seamlessly. Event driven programming is possible due to
   notifications upon reception of new devices or properties.

   \attention All notifications functions defined in INDI::BaseMediator must be implemented in the client class even if
   they are not used because these are pure virtual functions.

   \see <a href=http://indilib.org/index.php?title=Learn_how_to_write_INDI_clients>INDI Client Tutorial</a> for more details.
