<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <function>sd_bus_message_dump()</function> function writes a textual representation of the
|
|
message <parameter>m</parameter> to the stream <parameter>f</parameter>. If <parameter>f</parameter> is
|
|
<constant>NULL</constant>, standard output (<constant>stdio</constant>) will be used. This function is
|
|
intended to be used for debugging purposes, and the output is neither stable nor designed to be machine
|
|
readable.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <parameter>flags</parameter> parameter may be used to modify the output. With
|
|
<constant>SD_BUS_MESSAGE_DUMP_WITH_HEADER</constant>, a header that specifies the message type and flags
|
|
and some additional metadata is printed. When <constant>SD_BUS_MESSAGE_DUMP_SUBTREE_ONLY</constant> is
|
|
not passed, the contents of the whole message are printed. When it <emphasis>is</emphasis> passed,
|
|
only the current container in printed.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that this function moves the read pointer of the message. It may be necessary to reset the
|
|
position afterwards, for example with
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_rewind</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
