Message to be sent or received over a DBusConnection.
A DBusMessage is the most basic unit of communication over a DBusConnection. A DBusConnection represents a stream of messages received from a remote application, and a stream of messages sent to a remote application.
A message has a message type, returned from dbus_message_get_type(). This indicates whether the message is a method call, a reply to a method call, a signal, or an error reply.
A message has header fields such as the sender, destination, method or signal name, and so forth. DBusMessage has accessor functions for these, such as dbus_message_get_member().
Convenience functions dbus_message_is_method_call(), dbus_message_is_signal(), and dbus_message_is_error() check several header fields at once and are slightly more efficient than checking the header fields with individual accessor functions.
Finally, a message has arguments. The number and types of arguments are in the message's signature header field (accessed with dbus_message_get_signature()). Simple argument values are usually retrieved with dbus_message_get_args() but more complex values such as structs may require the use of DBusMessageIter.
The D-Bus specification goes into some more detail about header fields and message types.
#define DBUS_MESSAGE_ITER_INIT_CLOSED |
A message iterator for which dbus_message_iter_abandon_container_if_open() is the only valid operation.
Definition at line 100 of file dbus-message.h.
Opaque data type representing a message received from or to be sent to another application.
Definition at line 46 of file dbus-message.h.
typedef struct DBusMessageIter DBusMessageIter |
Opaque type representing a message iterator.
Can be copied by value and allocated on the stack.
A DBusMessageIter usually contains no allocated memory. However, there is one special case: after a successful call to dbus_message_iter_open_container(), the caller is responsible for calling either dbus_message_iter_close_container() or dbus_message_iter_abandon_container() exactly once, with the same pair of iterators.
Definition at line 58 of file dbus-message.h.
DBUS_EXPORT dbus_bool_t dbus_message_allocate_data_slot | ( | dbus_int32_t * | slot_p | ) |
Allocates an integer ID to be used for storing application-specific data on any DBusMessage.
The allocated ID may then be used with dbus_message_set_data() and dbus_message_get_data(). The passed-in slot must be initialized to -1, and is filled in with the slot ID. If the passed-in slot is not -1, it's assumed to be already allocated, and its refcount is incremented.
The allocated slot is global, i.e. all DBusMessage objects will have a slot with the given integer ID reserved.

DBUS_EXPORT dbus_bool_t dbus_message_append_args | ( | DBusMessage * | message, |
int | first_arg_type, | ||
... | |||
) |
Appends fields to a message given a variable argument list.
The variable argument list should contain the type of each argument followed by the value to append. Appendable types are basic types, and arrays of fixed-length basic types (except arrays of Unix file descriptors). To append variable-length basic types, or any more complex value, you have to use an iterator rather than this function.
To append a basic type, specify its type code followed by the address of the value. For example:
To append an array of fixed-length basic types (except Unix file descriptors), pass in the DBUS_TYPE_ARRAY typecode, the element typecode, the address of the array pointer, and a 32-bit integer giving the number of elements in the array. So for example:
This function does not support arrays of Unix file descriptors. If you need those you need to manually recurse into the array.
For Unix file descriptors this function will internally duplicate the descriptor you passed in. Hence you may close the descriptor immediately after this call.
The last argument to this function must be DBUS_TYPE_INVALID, marking the end of the argument list. If you don't do this then libdbus won't know to stop and will read invalid memory.
String/signature/path arrays should be passed in as "const char*** address_of_array" and "int n_elements"

DBUS_EXPORT dbus_bool_t dbus_message_get_args | ( | DBusMessage * | message, |
DBusError * | error, | ||
int | first_arg_type, | ||
... | |||
) |
Gets arguments from a message given a variable argument list.
The supported types include those supported by dbus_message_append_args(); that is, basic types and arrays of fixed-length basic types. The arguments are the same as they would be for dbus_message_iter_get_basic() or dbus_message_iter_get_fixed_array().
In addition to those types, arrays of string, object path, and signature are supported; but these are returned as allocated memory and must be freed with dbus_free_string_array(), while the other types are returned as const references. To get a string array pass in "char ***array_location" and "int *n_elements".
Similar to dbus_message_get_fixed_array() this function does not support arrays of type DBUS_TYPE_UNIX_FD. If you need to parse messages with arrays of Unix file descriptors you need to recurse into the array manually.
Unix file descriptors that are read with this function will have the FD_CLOEXEC flag set. If you need them without this flag set, make sure to unset it with fcntl().
The variable argument list should contain the type of the argument followed by a pointer to where the value should be stored. The list is terminated with DBUS_TYPE_INVALID.
Except for string arrays, the returned values are constant; do not free them. They point into the DBusMessage.
If the requested arguments are not present, or do not have the requested types, then an error will be set.
If more arguments than requested are present, the requested arguments are returned and the extra arguments are ignored.

The fixed-length types are all basic types that are not string-like. So int32, double, bool, etc. (Unix file descriptors however are not supported.)

You may call this function multiple times (and intermixed with calls to dbus_message_iter_append_basic()) for the same array.
The "value" argument should be the address of the array. So for integer, "dbus_int32_t**" is expected for example.

DBUS_EXPORT void dbus_message_iter_get_basic | ( | DBusMessageIter * | iter, |

) |
Reads a basic-typed value from the message iterator.
Basic types are the non-containers such as integer and string.
The value argument should be the address of a location to store the returned value. So for int32 it should be a "dbus_int32_t*" and for string a "const char**". The returned value is by reference and should not be freed.
This call duplicates Unix file descriptors when reading them. It is your job to close them when you don't need them anymore.
Unix file descriptors that are read with this function will have the FD_CLOEXEC flag set. If you need them without this flag set, make sure to unset it with fcntl().
Be sure you have somehow checked that dbus_message_iter_get_arg_type() matches the type you are expecting, or you'll crash when you try to use an integer as a string or something.
To read any container type (array, struct, dict) you will need to recurse into the container with dbus_message_iter_recurse(). If the container is an array of fixed-length values (except Unix file descriptors), you can get all the array elements at once with dbus_message_iter_get_fixed_array(). Otherwise, you have to iterate over the container's contents one value at a time.
All basic-typed values are guaranteed to fit in a DBusBasicValue, so in versions of libdbus that have that type, you can write code like this:
(All D-Bus basic types are either numeric and 8 bytes or smaller, or behave like a string; so in older versions of libdbus, DBusBasicValue can be replaced with union { char *string; unsigned char bytes[8]; }, for instance.)

DBUS_EXPORT void dbus_message_iter_get_fixed_array | ( | DBusMessageIter * | iter, |
void * | value, | ||
int * | n_elements | ||
) |
Reads a block of fixed-length values from the message iterator.
Fixed-length values are those basic types that are not string-like, such as integers, bool, double. The returned block will be from the current position in the array until the end of the array.
There is one exception here: although DBUS_TYPE_UNIX_FD is considered a 'fixed' type arrays of this type may not be read with this function.
The message iter should be "in" the array (that is, you recurse into the array, and then you call dbus_message_iter_get_fixed_array() on the "sub-iterator" created by dbus_message_iter_recurse()).
The value argument should be the address of a location to store the returned array. So for int32 it should be a "const dbus_int32_t**" The returned value is by reference and should not be freed.
This function should only be used if dbus_type_is_fixed() returns TRUE for the element type.
If an array's elements are not fixed in size, you have to recurse into the array with dbus_message_iter_recurse() and read the elements one by one.
Because the array is not copied, this function runs in constant time and is fast; it's much preferred over walking the entire array with an iterator. (However, you can always use dbus_message_iter_recurse(), even for fixed-length types; dbus_message_iter_get_fixed_array() is just an optimization.)

int | type, | ||
const char * | contained_signature, | ||
DBusMessageIter * | sub | ||
) |
Appends a container-typed value to the message.
On success, you are required to append the contents of the container using the returned sub-iterator, and then call dbus_message_iter_close_container(). Container types are for example struct, variant, and array. For variants, the contained_signature should be the type of the single value inside the variant. For structs and dict entries, contained_signature should be NULL; it will be set to whatever types you write into the struct. For arrays, contained_signature should be the type of the array elements.
If this function fails, the sub-iterator remains invalid, and must not be closed with dbus_message_iter_close_container() or abandoned with dbus_message_iter_abandon_container(). However, after this function has either succeeded or failed, it is valid to call dbus_message_iter_abandon_container_if_open().

DBUS_EXPORT void dbus_message_iter_recurse | ( | DBusMessageIter * | iter, |
DBusMessageIter * | sub | ||
) |
Recurses into a container value when reading values from a message, initializing a sub-iterator to use for traversing the child values of the container.
Note that this recurses into a value, not a type, so you can only recurse if the value exists. The main implication of this is that if you have for example an empty array of array of int32, you can recurse into the outermost array, but it will have no values, so you won't be able to recurse further. There's no array of int32 to recurse into.
If a container is an array of fixed-length types (except Unix file descriptors), it is much more efficient to use dbus_message_iter_get_fixed_array() to get the whole array in one shot, rather than individually walking over the array elements.
Be sure you have somehow checked that dbus_message_iter_get_arg_type() matches the type you are expecting to recurse into. Results of this function are undefined if there is no container to recurse into at the current iterator position.

DBUS_EXPORT void dbus_message_lock | ( | DBusMessage * | message | ) |
Locks a message.
Allows checking that applications don't keep a reference to a message in the outgoing queue and change it underneath us. Messages are locked when they enter the outgoing queue (dbus_connection_send_message()), and the library complains if the message is modified while locked. This function may also called externally, for applications wrapping D-Bus in another protocol.

Creates a new message that is an error reply to another message.
Error replies are most common in response to method calls, but can be returned in reply to any message.
The error name must be a valid error name according to the syntax given in the D-Bus specification. If you don't want to make up an error name just use DBUS_ERROR_FAILED.

Constructs a new message to invoke a method on a remote object.
Returns NULL if memory can't be allocated for the message. The destination may be NULL in which case no destination is set; this is appropriate when using D-Bus in a peer-to-peer context (no message bus). The interface may be NULL, which means that if multiple methods with the given name exist it is undefined which one will be invoked.
The path and method names may not be NULL.
Destination, path, interface, and method name can't contain any invalid characters (see the D-Bus specification).

DBUS_EXPORT void dbus_message_set_allow_interactive_authorization | ( | DBusMessage * | message, |
dbus_bool_t | allow | ||

Sets a flag indicating that the caller of the method is prepared to wait for interactive authorization to take place (for instance via Polkit) before the actual method is processed.
The flag is FALSE by default; that is, by default the other end is expected to make any authorization decisions non-interactively and promptly. It may use the error DBUS_ERROR_INTERACTIVE_AUTHORIZATION_REQUIRED to signal that authorization failed, but could have succeeded if this flag had been used.
For messages whose type is not DBUS_MESSAGE_TYPE_METHOD_CALL, this flag is meaningless and should not be set.
On the protocol level this toggles DBUS_HEADER_FLAG_ALLOW_INTERACTIVE_AUTHORIZATION.

When this flag is set, the message is held until a name owner finishes starting up, or fails to start up. In case of failure, the reply will be an error.
The flag is set to TRUE by default, i.e. auto starting is the default.
