<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_new()</function> creates a new bus
|
|
object. This object is reference-counted, and will be destroyed
|
|
when all references are gone. Initially, the caller of this
|
|
function owns the sole reference and the bus object will not be
|
|
connected to any bus. To connect it to a bus, make sure
|
|
to set an address with
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_set_address</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
or a related call, and then start the connection with
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_start</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>In most cases, it is better to use
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_default_user</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_default_system</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
|
or related calls instead of the more low-level <function>sd_bus_new()</function> and
|
|
<function>sd_bus_start()</function>. The higher-level functions not only allocate a bus object but also
|
|
start the connection to a well-known bus in a single function call.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_ref()</function> increases the reference
|
|
counter of <parameter>bus</parameter> by one.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_unref()</function> decreases the reference
|
|
counter of <parameter>bus</parameter> by one. Once the reference
|
|
count has dropped to zero, <parameter>bus</parameter> is destroyed
|
|
and cannot be used anymore, so further calls to
|
|
<function>sd_bus_ref()</function> or
|
|
<function>sd_bus_unref()</function> are illegal.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_unrefp()</function> is similar to
|
|
<function>sd_bus_unref()</function> but takes a pointer to a
|
|
pointer to an <type>sd_bus</type> object. This call is useful in
|
|
conjunction with GCC's and LLVM's <ulink
|
|
url="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Variable-Attributes.html">Clean-up
|
|
Variable Attribute</ulink>. Note that this function is defined as an
|
|
inline function. Use a declaration like the following, in order to
|
|
allocate a bus object that is freed automatically as the code
|
|
block is left:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>{
|
|
__attribute__((cleanup(sd_bus_unrefp))) sd_bus *bus = NULL;
|
|
int r;
|
|
…
|
|
r = sd_bus_default(&bus);
|
|
if (r < 0) {
|
|
errno = -r;
|
|
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to allocate bus: %m\n");
|
|
}
|
|
…
|
|
}</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_ref()</function> and <function>sd_bus_unref()</function> execute no operation if
|
|
the argument is <constant>NULL</constant>. <function>sd_bus_unrefp()</function> will first dereference
|
|
its argument, which must not be <constant>NULL</constant>, and will execute no operation if
|
|
<emphasis>that</emphasis> is <constant>NULL</constant>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_close_unref()</function> is similar to <function>sd_bus_unref()</function>, but
|
|
first executes
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_close</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
ensuring that the connection is terminated before the reference to the connection is dropped and possibly
|
|
the object freed.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_flush_close_unref()</function> is similar to <function>sd_bus_unref()</function>,
|
|
but first executes
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_flush</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> as well
|
|
as <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_close</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
|
ensuring that any pending messages are synchronously flushed out before the reference to the connection
|
|
is dropped and possibly the object freed. This call is particularly useful immediately before exiting
|
|
from a program as it ensures that any pending outgoing messages are written out, and unprocessed but
|
|
queued incoming messages released before the connection is terminated and released.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_close_unrefp()</function> is similar to
|
|
<function>sd_bus_close_unref()</function>, but may be used in GCC's and LLVM's Clean-up Variable
|
|
Attribute, see above. Similarly, <function>sd_bus_flush_close_unrefp()</function> is similar to
|
|
<function>sd_bus_flush_close_unref()</function>.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>

<para>On success, <function>sd_bus_new()</function> returns 0 or a

positive integer. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style

error code.</para>

<para><function>sd_bus_ref()</function> always returns the argument.

</para>
