NAME

sd_bus_message_seal − Prepare a D−Bus message for transmission

SYNOPSIS

#include <elogind/sd−bus.h>

int sd_bus_message_seal(sd_bus_message *m, uint64_t cookie, uint64_t timeout_usec);

DESCRIPTION

sd_bus_message_seal() finishes the message m and prepares it for transmission using sd_bus_send(3). cookie specifies the identifier used to match the message reply to its corresponding request. timeout_usec specifies the maximum time in microseconds to wait for a reply to arrive.

Note that in most scenarios, it's not necessary to call this function directly. sd_bus_call(3), sd_bus_call_async(3) and sd_bus_send(3) will seal any given messages if they have not been sealed yet.

RETURN VALUE

On success, this function returns a non−negative integer. On failure, it returns a negative errno−style error code.

Errors

Returned errors may indicate the following problems:

−EINVAL

The m parameter is NULL.

−EBADMSG

The D−Bus message m has open containers.

−ENOMSG

The D−Bus message m is a reply but its type signature does not match the return type signature of its corresponding member in the object vtable.

NOTES

These APIs are implemented as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with the libelogind pkg-config(1) file.
