Detailed Description

Client side handle to monitor goal progress.

A ClientGoalHandle is a reference counted object that is used to manipulate and monitor the progress of an already dispatched goal. Once all the goal handles go out of scope (or are reset), an ActionClient stops maintaining state for that goal.
