Method
GioDBusConnectionsend_message
since: 2.26
Declaration [src]
gboolean
g_dbus_connection_send_message (
GDBusConnection* connection,
GDBusMessage* message,
GDBusSendMessageFlags flags,
volatile guint32* out_serial,
GError** error
)
Description [src]
Asynchronously sends message to the peer represented by connection.
Unless flags contain the
G_DBUS_SEND_MESSAGE_FLAGS_PRESERVE_SERIAL flag, the serial number
will be assigned by connection and set on message via
g_dbus_message_set_serial(). If out_serial is not NULL, then the
serial number used will be written to this location prior to
submitting the message to the underlying transport. While it has a volatile
qualifier, this is a historical artifact and the argument passed to it should
not be volatile.
If connection is closed then the operation will fail with
G_IO_ERROR_CLOSED. If message is not well-formed,
the operation fails with G_IO_ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT.
See this [server][gdbus-server] and [client][gdbus-unix-fd-client] for an example of how to use this low-level API to send and receive UNIX file descriptors.
Note that message must be unlocked, unless flags contain the
G_DBUS_SEND_MESSAGE_FLAGS_PRESERVE_SERIAL flag.
