;; Low-level language bindings are implemented in src/dbusbind.c.

  "Call METHOD on the D-Bus BUS.

BUS is either a Lisp symbol, `:system' or `:session', or a string
denoting the bus address.

SERVICE is the D-Bus service name to be used.  PATH is the D-Bus
object path SERVICE is registered at.  INTERFACE is an interface
offered by SERVICE.  It must provide METHOD.

If the parameter `:timeout' is given, the following integer TIMEOUT
specifies the maximum number of milliseconds the method call must
return.  The default value is 25,000.  If the method call doesn't
return in time, a D-Bus error is raised.

All other arguments ARGS are passed to METHOD as arguments.  They are
converted into D-Bus types via the following rules:

  t and nil => DBUS_TYPE_BOOLEAN
  number    => DBUS_TYPE_UINT32
  integer   => DBUS_TYPE_INT32
  float     => DBUS_TYPE_DOUBLE
  string    => DBUS_TYPE_STRING
  list      => DBUS_TYPE_ARRAY

All arguments can be preceded by a type symbol.  For details about
type symbols, see Info node `(dbus)Type Conversion'.

`dbus-call-method' returns the resulting values of METHOD as a list of
Lisp objects.  The type conversion happens the other direction as for
input arguments.  It follows the mapping rules:

  DBUS_TYPE_BOOLEAN     => t or nil
  DBUS_TYPE_BYTE        => number
  DBUS_TYPE_UINT16      => number
  DBUS_TYPE_INT16       => integer
  DBUS_TYPE_UINT32      => number or float
  DBUS_TYPE_UNIX_FD     => number or float
  DBUS_TYPE_INT32       => integer or float
  DBUS_TYPE_UINT64      => number or float
  DBUS_TYPE_INT64       => integer or float
  DBUS_TYPE_DOUBLE      => float
  DBUS_TYPE_STRING      => string
  DBUS_TYPE_OBJECT_PATH => string
  DBUS_TYPE_SIGNATURE   => string
  DBUS_TYPE_ARRAY       => list
  DBUS_TYPE_VARIANT     => list
  DBUS_TYPE_STRUCT      => list
  DBUS_TYPE_DICT_ENTRY  => list

Example:

\(dbus-call-method
  :session \"org.gnome.seahorse\" \"/org/gnome/seahorse/keys/openpgp\"
  \"org.gnome.seahorse.Keys\" \"GetKeyField\"
  \"openpgp:657984B8C7A966DD\" \"simple-name\")

  => (t (\"Philip R. Zimmermann\"))

If the result of the METHOD call is just one value, the converted Lisp
object is returned instead of a list containing this single Lisp object.

\(dbus-call-method
  :system \"org.freedesktop.Hal\" \"/org/freedesktop/Hal/devices/computer\"
  \"org.freedesktop.Hal.Device\" \"GetPropertyString\"

`:pathN' STRING: This stands for the Nth argument of the
signal.  `:pathN' arguments can be used for object path wildcard
matches as specified by D-Bus, while an `:argN' argument
requires an exact match.

`:arg-namespace' STRING: Register for the signals, which first
argument defines the service or interface namespace STRING.

`:path-namespace' STRING: Register for the object path namespace
STRING.  All signals sent from an object path, which has STRING as
the preceding string, are matched.  This requires PATH to be nil.

`:eavesdrop': Register for unicast signals which are not directed
to the D-Bus object Emacs is registered at D-Bus BUS, if the
security policy of BUS allows this.

Example:

\(defun my-signal-handler (device)
  (message \"Device %s added\" device))

\(dbus-register-signal
  :system \"org.freedesktop.Hal\" \"/org/freedesktop/Hal/Manager\"
  \"org.freedesktop.Hal.Manager\" \"DeviceAdded\" \\='my-signal-handler)
