<h1 id="base-driver">Base driver</h1>
<p>The base driver is a &ldquo;special&rdquo; driver that will not be loaded by the device manager.
Normally the device manager will load drivers if it find device which are idle&hellip; But before that can happen
at least one device should exists. This is the role of a base driver and it should function like a &ldquo;normal&rdquo; OSGi
bundle which registers a device service.</p>
<p>In this example the base driver will provide two device service with a DEVICE_CATEGORY of &ldquo;char&rdquo;.</p>
