Net::DBus::GLib

NAME

Net::DBus::GLib − Perl extension for the DBus GLib bindings

SYNOPSIS

  ####### Attaching to the bus ###########
  use Net::DBus::GLib;
  # Find the most appropriate bus
  my $bus = Net::DBus::GLib−>find;
  # ... or explicitly go for the session bus
  my $bus = Net::DBus::GLib−>session;
  # .... or explicitly go for the system bus
  my $bus = Net::DBus::GLib−>system

DESCRIPTION

Net::DBus::GLib provides an extension to the Net::DBus module allowing integration with the GLib mainloop. To integrate with the main loop, simply get a connection to the bus via the methods in Net::DBus::GLib rather than the usual Net::DBus module. That’s it − every other API remains the same.

EXAMPLE

As an example service using the GLib main loop, assuming that SomeObject inherits from Net::DBus::Service

  my $bus = Net::DBus::GLib−>session();
  my $service = $bus−>export_service("org.designfu.SampleService");
  my $object = SomeObject−>new($service);
  Glib::MainLoop−>new()−>run();

And as an example client

  my $bus = Net::DBus::GLib−>session();
  my $service = $bus−>get_service("org.designfu.SampleService");
  my $object = $service−>get_object("/SomeObject");
  my $list = $object−>HelloWorld("Hello from example−client.pl!");

METHODS

my $bus = Net::DBus::GLib−>find(%params);

Search for the most appropriate bus to connect to and return a connection to it. For details of the heuristics used, consult the method of the same name in "Net::DBus". The %params hash may contain an additional entry with a name of "context". This can be a reference to an instance of the "Glib::MainContext" object; if omitted, the default GLib context will be used.

my $bus = Net::DBus::GLib−>system(%params);

Return a handle for the system message bus. For further details on this method, consult to the method of the same name in Net::DBus. The %params hash may contain an additional entry with a name of "context". This can be a reference to an instance of the "Glib::MainContext" object; if omitted, the default GLib context will be used.

my $bus = Net::DBus::GLib−>session(%params);

Return a handle for the session message bus. For further details on this method, consult to the method of the same name in Net::DBus. The %params hash may contain an additional entry with a name of "context". This can be a reference to an instance of the "Glib::MainContext" object; if omitted, the default GLib context will be used.
