<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>The <function>sd_bus_message_append()</function> function appends a sequence of fields to
|
|
the D-Bus message object <parameter>m</parameter>. The type string <parameter>types</parameter>
|
|
describes the types of the field arguments that follow. For each type specified in the type
|
|
string, one or more arguments need to be specified, in the same order as declared in the type
|
|
string.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The type string is composed of the elements shown in the table below. It contains zero or
|
|
more single "complete types". Each complete type may be one of the basic types or a fully
|
|
described container type. A container type may be a structure with the contained types, a
|
|
variant, an array with its element type, or a dictionary entry with the contained types. The
|
|
type string is <constant>NUL</constant>-terminated.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>In case of a basic type, one argument of the corresponding type is expected.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>A structure is denoted by a sequence of complete types between <literal>(</literal> and
|
|
<literal>)</literal>. This sequence cannot be empty — it must contain at least one type.
|
|
Arguments corresponding to this nested sequence follow the same rules as if they were not
|
|
nested.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>A variant is denoted by <literal>v</literal>. Corresponding arguments must begin with a
|
|
type string denoting a complete type, and following that, arguments corresponding to the
|
|
specified type.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>An array is denoted by <literal>a</literal> followed by a complete type. Corresponding
|
|
arguments must begin with the number of entries in the array, followed by the entries
|
|
themselves, matching the element type of the array.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>A dictionary is an array of dictionary entries, denoted by <literal>a</literal> followed
|
|
by a pair of complete types between <literal>{</literal> and <literal>}</literal>. The first of
|
|
those types must be a basic type. Corresponding arguments must begin with the number of
|
|
dictionary entries, followed by a pair of values for each entry matching the element type of the
|
|
dictionary entries.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_message_appendv()</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. This function does not
|
|
call the <function>va_end()</function> macro. Because it invokes the
|
|
<function>va_arg()</function> macro, the value of <parameter>ap</parameter> is undefined after
|
|
the call.</para>
