D-Bus is most * convenient when used with the GLib bindings, Python bindings, Qt * bindings, Mono bindings, and so forth. This low-level API has a * lot of complexity useful only for bindings. * * @{ */ /** @} */ /** * @mainpage * * This manual documents the <em>low-level</em> D-Bus C API. <b>If you use * this low-level API directly, you're signing up for some pain.</b> * * Caveats aside, you might get started learning the low-level API by reading * about @ref DBusConnection and @ref DBusMessage. * * There are several other places to look for D-Bus information, such * as the tutorial and the specification; those can be found at <a * href="http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/dbus">the D-Bus * website</a>. If you're interested in a sysadmin or package * maintainer's perspective on the dbus-daemon itself and its * configuration, be sure to check out the man pages as well. * * The low-level API documented in this manual deliberately lacks * most convenience functions - those are left up to higher-level libraries * based on frameworks such as GLib, Qt, Python, Mono, Java, * etc. These higher-level libraries (often called "D-Bus bindings") * have features such as object systems and main loops that allow a * <em>much</em> more convenient API. * * The low-level API also contains plenty of clutter to support * integration with arbitrary object systems, languages, main loops, * and so forth. These features add a lot of noise to the API that you * probably don't care about unless you're coding a binding. * * This manual also contains docs for @ref DBusInternals "D-Bus internals", * so you can use it to get oriented to the D-Bus source code if you're * interested in patching the code. You should also read the * file HACKING which comes with the source code if you plan to contribute to * D-Bus. * * As you read the code, you can identify internal D-Bus functions * because they start with an underscore ('_') character. Also, any * identifier or macro that lacks a DBus, dbus_, or DBUS_ namepace * prefix is internal, with a couple of exceptions such as #NULL, * #TRUE, and #FALSE. */ #endif /* DBUS_H */
