g_dbus_interface_skeleton_flush ()

void                g_dbus_interface_skeleton_flush     (GDBusInterfaceSkeleton *interface_);

If interface_ has outstanding changes, request for these changes to be emitted immediately.

For example, an exported D-Bus interface may queue up property changes and emit the org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties::PropertiesChanged signal later (e.g. in an idle handler). This technique is useful for collapsing multiple property changes into one.

Since 2.30

g_dbus_interface_skeleton_get_info ()

GDBusInterfaceInfo * g_dbus_interface_skeleton_get_info (GDBusInterfaceSkeleton *interface_);

Gets D-Bus introspection information for the D-Bus interface implemented by interface_.

Exports interface_ at object_path on connection.

This can be called multiple times to export the same interface_ onto multiple connections however the object_path provided must be the same for all connections.

Use g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport() to unexport the object.

Since 2.30

g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport ()

void                g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport  (GDBusInterfaceSkeleton *interface_);

Stops exporting interface_ on all connections it is exported on.

To unexport interface_ from only a single connection, use g_dbus_interface_skeleton_unexport_from_connection()

Since 2.30

The "g-authorize-method" signal

gboolean            user_function                      (GDBusInterfaceSkeleton *interface,
                                                        GDBusMethodInvocation  *invocation,
                                                        gpointer                user_data)       : Run Last

Emitted when a method is invoked by a remote caller and used to determine if the method call is authorized.

Note that this signal is emitted in a thread dedicated to handling the method call so handlers are allowed to perform blocking IO. This means that it is appropriate to call e.g. polkit_authority_check_authorization_sync() with the POLKIT_CHECK_AUTHORIZATION_FLAGS_ALLOW_USER_INTERACTION flag set.

If FALSE is returned then no further handlers are run and the signal handler must take a reference to invocation and finish handling the call (e.g. return an error via g_dbus_method_invocation_return_error()).

Otherwise, if TRUE is returned, signal emission continues. If no handlers return FALSE, then the method is dispatched. If interface has an enclosing GDBusObjectSkeleton, then the "authorize-method" signal handlers run before the handlers for this signal.

The default class handler just returns TRUE.

Please note that the common case is optimized: if no signals handlers are connected and the default class handler isn't overridden (for both interface and the enclosing GDBusObjectSkeleton, if any) and "g-flags" does not have the G_DBUS_INTERFACE_SKELETON_FLAGS_HANDLE_METHOD_INVOCATIONS_IN_THREAD flags set, no dedicated thread is ever used and the call will be handled in the same thread as the object that interface belongs to was exported in.
