/** @defgroup lirc_client   Client API
 *   @brief  Basic interface to 3-rd party applications.
 *
 *  The lirc_client interface is the basic interface for 3-rd party
 *  applications using lirc. It provides functions to retrieve , send
 *  and control button events to/from remotes.
 *
 *  Receiving events from remotes  could be done according to the following
 *  example, a stripped down version of the irexec(1) tool.
 *
 *         #include "lirc_client.h"
 *
 *         int main(int argc, char* argv[])
 *         {
 *             const char* lircrc_path;
 *             struct lirc_config* config;
 *             char* code;
 *             char* s;
 *
 *             // Check arguments... use argv[1] as lircrc config file path.
 *             lircrc_path = argc == 2 ? argv[1] : NULL;
 *
 *             if (lirc_init("mythtv", 1) == -1) {
 *                 // Process error and exit
 *             }
 *             if (lirc_readconfig(lircrc_path, &config, NULL) != 0) {
 *                 // Process error and exit.
 *             }
 *             while (lirc_nextcode(&code) == 0) {
 *                 if (code == NULL) continue;
 *                 while (lirc_code2char(config, code, &s) == 0 && s != NULL) {
 *                     // Do something with string s.
 *                 }
 *                 free(code);
 *             }
 *             lirc_freeconfig(config);
 *             lirc_deinit();
 *             exit(0);
 *         }
 *
 *  Some notes:
 *       - lirc_init() connects to the lircd daemon socket.
 *         The program given as argument is used when we later call
 *         lirc_readconfig() to determine what translation(s) to use. Thus it
 *         should match the `program = ...` items in the lircrc config file.
 *       - lirc_readconfig() parses the lircrc config file into &config. Using
 *         NULL as path means that the default lircrc file is used.
 *       - lirc_nextcode() reads the next button event from lircd. For the
 *         purposes here the returned code is just an opaque handle. It
 *         will sometimes return on a timeout without any data available, thus
 *         the `if (code == NULL) continue` statement.
 *       - lirc_code2char() translates the code handle to one ore more
 *         application specific string as defined in the licrrc file. Since
 *         more than one string can be returned  lirc_code2char() should be
 *         called until it returns a NULL string.
 *       - The complete source for this example is in @ref irexec.cpp
 *
 * Sending (blasting) is done according to following:
 *
 *     #include "lirc_client.h"
 *
 *     int main(int argc, char** argv)
 *     {
 *         int fd;
 *
 *         fd = lirc_get_local_socket(NULL, 0);
 *         if (fd < 0) {
 *             // Process error
 *         }
 *         if (lirc_send_one(fd, "name of remote", "Key symbol") == -1) {
 *             // Process errors
 *         };
 *     }
 *
 *  Notes:
 *    - Feeding NULL to lirc_get_local_socket() will make it use the default
 *      lircd socket. Doing so, it respects the LIRC_SOCKET_PATH environment
 *      variable.
 *    - "Name of remote" is the mandatory name attribute in the lircd.conf
 *      config file.
 *    - "Key symbol" is the name of a key definition in the lircd.conf file.
 *    - lirc_send_one() and lirc_simulate() are blocking. If  you need to do
 *      non-blocking IO and/or access other functionality available you need
 *      to use lirc_command_init() and lirc_command_run(). Example code is
 *      in @ref irsend.cpp.
 *
 *      @example irsend.cpp
 *      @example irexec.cpp
