Function

GioDBusProxynew

since: 2.26

Declaration [src] 

void
g_dbus_proxy_new (
  GDBusConnection* connection,
  GDBusProxyFlags flags,
  GDBusInterfaceInfo* info,
  const gchar* name,
  const gchar* object_path,
  const gchar* interface_name,
  GCancellable* cancellable,
  GAsyncReadyCallback callback,
  gpointer user_data
)

Description [src]

Creates a proxy for accessing interface_name on the remote object at object_path owned by name at connection and asynchronously loads D-Bus properties unless the G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_LOAD_PROPERTIES flag is used. Connect to the GDBusProxy::g-properties-changed signal to get notified about property changes.

If the G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_CONNECT_SIGNALS flag is not set, also sets up match rules for signals. Connect to the GDBusProxy::g-signal signal to handle signals from the remote object.

If both G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_LOAD_PROPERTIES and G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_CONNECT_SIGNALS are set, this constructor is guaranteed to complete immediately without blocking.

If name is a well-known name and the G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_AUTO_START and G_DBUS_PROXY_FLAGS_DO_NOT_AUTO_START_AT_CONSTRUCTION flags aren’t set and no name owner currently exists, the message bus will be requested to launch a name owner for the name.

This is a failable asynchronous constructor - when the proxy is ready, callback will be invoked and you can use g_dbus_proxy_new_finish() to get the result.

See g_dbus_proxy_new_sync() and for a synchronous version of this constructor.

GDBusProxy is used in this [example][gdbus-wellknown-proxy].

Available since: 2.26

This function completes asynchronously. Use g_dbus_proxy_new_finish() inside the GAsyncReadyCallback to obtain the result of the operation.
