<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_bus_emit_signal()</function> is a convenience function for initializing a
bus message object and emitting the corresponding D-Bus signal. It combines the
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_new_signal</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_append</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> and
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_send</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
functions into a single function call. <function>sd_bus_emit_signalv()</function> is
equivalent to <function>sd_bus_message_append()</function>, except that it is called with a
<literal>va_list</literal> instead of a variable number of arguments.</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_emit_interfaces_added()</function> and
<function>sd_bus_emit_interfaces_removed()</function> are used to implement the
<function>InterfacesAdded</function> and <function>InterfacesRemoved</function> signals of the
<constant>org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager</constant> interface. They take a path whose
interfaces have been modified as an argument and a variable list of interfaces that have been
added or removed, respectively. The final argument passed to
<function>sd_bus_emit_interfaces_added()</function> and
<function>sd_bus_emit_interfaces_removed()</function> <emphasis>must</emphasis> be
<constant>NULL</constant>. This allows both functions to safely determine the number of passed
interface arguments. <function>sd_bus_emit_interfaces_added_strv()</function> and
<function>sd_bus_emit_interfaces_removed_strv()</function> are identical to their respective
counterparts but both take the list of interfaces as a single argument instead of a variable
number of arguments.</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_emit_properties_changed()</function> is used to implement the
<function>PropertiesChanged</function> signal of the
<constant>org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties</constant> interface. It takes an object path,
interface and a variable list of property names as its arguments. The final argument passed to
<function>sd_bus_emit_properties_changed()</function> <emphasis>must</emphasis> be
<constant>NULL</constant>. This allows it to safely determine the number of passed property
names. <function>sd_bus_emit_properties_changed_strv()</function> is identical to
<function>sd_bus_emit_properties_changed()</function> but takes the list of property names as a
single argument instead of a variable number of arguments.</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_emit_object_added()</function> and
<function>sd_bus_emit_object_removed()</function> are convenience functions for emitting the
<function>InterfacesAdded</function> or <function>InterfacesRemoved</function> signals for all
interfaces registered on a specific object path, respectively. This includes any parent fallback
vtables if they are not overridden by a more applicable child vtable. It also includes all the
standard D-Bus interfaces implemented by sd-bus itself on any registered object.</para>
<para>Note that <function>sd_bus_emit_interfaces_added()</function>,
<function>sd_bus_emit_interfaces_removed()</function>,
<function>sd_bus_emit_object_added()</function> and
<function>sd_bus_emit_object_removed()</function> require an object manager to have been
registered on the given object path or one of its parent object paths using
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_add_object_manager</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.

<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, these functions return a non-negative integer. On failure, they return a
negative errno-style error code.</para>
