dbus.mainloop package¶
Module contents¶
Base definitions, etc. for main loop integration.
-
dbus.mainloop.
NULL_MAIN_LOOP
= <dbus.mainloop.NativeMainLoop object>¶ A null mainloop which doesn’t actually do anything.
For advanced users who want to dispatch events by hand. This is almost certainly a bad idea - if in doubt, use the GLib main loop found in dbus.mainloop.glib.
-
class
dbus.mainloop.
NativeMainLoop
¶ Bases:
object
Object representing D-Bus main loop integration done in native code. Cannot be instantiated directly.
-
dbus.mainloop.
WATCH_ERROR
= 4¶ Represents an error condition on a file descriptor. Used to implement file descriptor watches.
-
dbus.mainloop.
WATCH_HANGUP
= 8¶ Represents a file descriptor reaching end-of-file. Used to implement file descriptor watches.
-
dbus.mainloop.
WATCH_READABLE
= 1¶ Represents a file descriptor becoming readable. Used to implement file descriptor watches.
-
dbus.mainloop.
WATCH_WRITABLE
= 2¶ Represents a file descriptor becoming readable. Used to implement file descriptor watches.
dbus.mainloop.glib module¶
GLib main loop integration using libdbus-glib.
-
dbus.mainloop.glib.
DBusGMainLoop
([set_as_default=False]) → NativeMainLoop¶ Return a NativeMainLoop object which can be used to represent the default GLib main context in dbus-python.
If the keyword argument set_as_default is given and is true, set the new main loop as the default for all new Connection or Bus instances.
Non-default main contexts are not currently supported.
-
dbus.mainloop.glib.
threads_init
()¶ Initialize threads in dbus-glib, if this has not already been done.
This must be called before creating a second thread in a program that uses this module.
