166/** @brief wrap calls to server-side-functions with different error-handling strategies
167
168 Template class to access a process-wide singleton server-connection and to wrap all
169 calls using this connection with an error-handling strategy (e.g. to reconnect when
170 the connection broke). The source looks very complicated due to heavy use of templates,
171 look at the 3rd codegen example to see how to use it.
172
173 @par Example
174 Calling remote methods is usually done via t2n_exec, this saves you from always
175 specifying which T2nSingletonWrapper-template to use when calling T2nSingletonWrapper::exec
176 @code
177 t2n_exec(&cmd_group_t2nexample_client::testfunc)("the answer is %d",42)
