Detailed Description
Contains information to identifiy a hardware device unambiguously on the bus.
Always when the BusAdapter has to perform operations which are not simply memory mapped it needs information to identify the device. This information in principle varies for different BusAdapters and of course for different technologies (PCI or VME). In order to handle requests in a general way this baseclass has been introduced. It allows formulating requests to the BusAdapter in a implementation independent way.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation
| virtual HAL::DeviceIdentifier::~DeviceIdentifier | ( | ) | [inline, virtual] |
The Destructor of the DeviceIdentifier.
If the BusAdapter uses memory mapping (like for example the DummyBusAdapters) this is the place where the memory maps can be deleted. The DeviceIdentifier is deleted in the closeDevice method of the HardwareDevice. So if in the constructor to the DeviceIdentifier the pointers to the created maps are passed they can be deleted here. See the DummyBusAdapters for an example.
