<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_bus_message_get_signature()</function> returns the signature of message
<parameter>message</parameter>. If <parameter>complete</parameter> is true, the signature of the
whole message is returned, and just the signature of the currently open container otherwise.
</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_message_is_empty()</function> returns true if the message is empty,
i.e. when its signature is empty.</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_message_has_signature()</function> returns true if the signature of the
message <parameter>message</parameter> matches given <parameter>signature</parameter>. Parameter
<parameter>signature</parameter> may be <constant>NULL</constant>, this is treated the same as
an empty string, which is equivalent to calling <function>sd_bus_message_is_empty()</function>.
</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, <function>sd_bus_message_get_signature()</function> returns
the signature, and <constant>NULL</constant> on error.</para>
<para>The other functions return 0 or a positive integer on success. On failure, they return a
negative errno-style error code.</para>
