<title>Description</title>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_new()</function> creates a new bus
|
||
object. This object is reference-counted, and will be destroyed
|
||
when all references are gone. Initially, the caller of this
|
||
function owns the sole reference and the bus object will not be
|
||
connected to any bus. To connect it to a bus, make sure
|
||
to set an address with
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_set_address</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
or a related call, and then start the connection with
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_start</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>In most cases, it is a better idea to invoke
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_default_user</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>,
|
||
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_default_system</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
|
||
or related calls instead of the more low-level
|
||
<function>sd_bus_new()</function> and
|
||
<function>sd_bus_start()</function>. The higher-level calls not
|
||
only allocate a bus object but also start the connection to a
|
||
well-known bus in a single function invocation.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_ref()</function> increases the reference
|
||
counter of <parameter>bus</parameter> by one.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_unref()</function> decreases the reference
|
||
counter of <parameter>bus</parameter> by one. Once the reference
|
||
count has dropped to zero, <parameter>bus</parameter> is destroyed
|
||
and cannot be used anymore, so further calls to
|
||
<function>sd_bus_ref()</function> or
|
||
<function>sd_bus_unref()</function> are illegal.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_unrefp()</function> is similar to
|
||
<function>sd_bus_unref()</function> but takes a pointer to a
|
||
pointer to an <type>sd_bus</type> object. This call is useful in
|
||
conjunction with GCC's and LLVM's <ulink
|
||
url="https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Variable-Attributes.html">Clean-up
|
||
Variable Attribute</ulink>. Note that this function is defined as
|
||
inline function. Use a declaration like the following, in order to
|
||
allocate a bus object that is freed automatically as the code
|
||
block is left:</para>
|
||
|
||
<programlisting>{
|
||
__attribute__((cleanup(sd_bus_unrefp)) sd_bus *bus = NULL;
|
||
int r;
|
||
…
|
||
r = sd_bus_default(&bus);
|
||
if (r < 0)
|
||
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to allocate bus: %s\n", strerror(-r));
|
||
…
|
||
}</programlisting>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_ref()</function>,
|
||
<function>sd_bus_unref()</function> and
|
||
<function>sd_bus_unrefp()</function> execute no operation if the
|
||
passed in bus object is <constant>NULL</constant>.</para>

|
||
<title>Return Value</title>
|
||
|
||
<para>On success, <function>sd_bus_new()</function> returns 0 or a
|
||
positive integer. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style
|
||
error code.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_ref()</function> always returns the argument.
|
||
</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_unref()</function> always returns
|

<constant>NULL</constant>.</para>
