| The base driver is "special" driver that will not be loaded by the device manager. |
| Normally the device manager will load drivers if it find device which are idle... 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 "normal" OSGi |
| bundle which registers a device service. |
| |
| In this example the base driver will provide two device service with a DEVICE_CATEGORY of "char". |
