<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_bus_message_read_strv()</function> gives access to an array of string-like items in
<para><function>sd_bus_message_read_strv()</function> reads an array of string-like items from the
message <parameter>m</parameter>. The "read pointer" in the message must be right before an array of
strings (D-Bus type <literal>as</literal>), object paths (D-Bus type <literal>ao</literal>), or
signatures (D-Bus type <literal>ag</literal>). On success, a pointer to a
<constant>NULL</constant>-terminated array of strings is returned in the output parameter
<constant>NULL</constant>-terminated array of strings (strv) is returned in the output parameter
<parameter>l</parameter>. Note that ownership of this array is transferred to the caller. Hence, the
caller is responsible for freeing this array and its contents.</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_message_read_strv_extend()</function> is similar, but the second parameter is an
input-output parameter. If <parameter>*l</parameter> is <constant>NULL</constant>, if behaves identically
to <function>sd_bus_message_read_strv()</function>. Otherwise, <parameter>*l</parameter> must point to a
strv, which will be reallocated and extended with additional strings. This function is particularly
useful when combining multiple lists of strings in a message or messages into a single array of strings.
