<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para>The <function>sd_bus_message_append_array</function> functionc
|
||
appends items to message <parameter>m</parameter> as the single
|
||
array. A container will be opened, items appended, and the
|
||
container closed. Parameter <parameter>type</parameter> determines
|
||
how pointer <parameter>p</parameter> is interpreted.
|
||
<parameter>type</parameter> must be one of the "trivial" types
|
||
<literal>y</literal>, <literal>n</literal>, <literal>q</literal>,
|
||
<literal>i</literal>, <literal>u</literal>, <literal>x</literal>,
|
||
<literal>t</literal>, <literal>d</literal> (but not
|
||
<literal>b</literal>), as defined by the
|
||
<ulink url="http://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#basic-types">Basic Types</ulink>
|
||
section of the D-Bus specification, and listed in
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_append_basic</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
|
||
Pointer <parameter>p</parameter> must point to an array of of size
|
||
<parameter>size</parameter> bytes containing items of the
|
||
respective type. Size <parameter>size</parameter> must be a
|
||
multiple of the size of the type <parameter>type</parameter>. As a
|
||
special case, <parameter>p</parameter> may be
|
||
<constant>NULL</constant>, if <parameter>size</parameter> is 0.
|
||
</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The memory pointed at by <parameter>p</parameter> is copied
|
||
into the memory area containing the message and may be changed
|
||
after this call.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array_memfd</function> function appends
|
||
items to message <parameter>m</parameter>, similarly to
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array</function>. Contents of the
|
||
memory file descriptor <parameter>memfd</parameter> are used as
|
||
the contents of the array. Their size must be a multiple of the
|
||
size of the type <parameter>type</parameter>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The descriptor specified with <parameter>memfd</parameter>
|
||
will be sealed and cannot be modified after this call.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array_iovec</function> function appends
|
||
items to message <parameter>m</parameter>, similarly to
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array</function>. Contents of the
|
||
iovec <parameter>iov</parameter> are used as the contents of the
|
||
array. The total size of <parameter>iov</parameter> payload (the
|
||
sum of <structfield>iov_len</structfield> fields) must be a multiple
|
||
of the size of the type <parameter>type</parameter>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The <parameter>iov</parameter> argument must point to
|
||
<parameter>n</parameter> <structname>struct iovec</structname>
|
||
structures. Each structure may have the
|
||
<structname>iov_base</structname> field set, in which case the
|
||
memory pointed to will be copied into the message, or unset, in
|
||
which case a block of zeros of length
|
||
<structname>iov_len</structname> bytes will be inserted. The
|
||
memory pointed at by <parameter>iov</parameter> may be changed
|
||
after this call.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>The
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array_space</function> function appends
|
||
space for an array of items to message <parameter>m</parameter>.
|
||
It behaves the same as
|
||
<function>sd_bus_message_append_array</function>, but instead
|
||
of copying items to the message, it returns a pointer to the
|
||
destination area to the caller in pointer <parameter>p</parameter>.

<title>Return Value</title>
|
||
|
||
<para>On success, these calls return 0 or a positive integer. On
|
||
failure, they returns a negative errno-style error code.</para>
