| ) |  |

Create a new message to invoke a method on a remote object.

Parameters

If

Parameters

  msg | is an error message return EINA_TRUE and fill in the name and text of the error.
  msg | The message containing the error
  name | Variable in which to store the error name or `NULL` if it's not desired.

Eina_Bool eldbus_message_arguments_get | ( | const Eldbus_Message * | msg,
|  | const char * | signature,
|  |  | ...
| ) |  |

Get the arguments from an Eldbus_Message.

Get the arguments of an Eldbus_Message storing them in the locations pointed to by the pointer arguments that follow param signature. Each pointer argument must be of a type that is appropriate for the correspondent complete type in param signature. For complex types such as arrays, structs, dictionaries or variants, a pointer to Eldbus_Message_Iter* must be provided.

Parameters

  msg | The message to get the arguments from.
  signature | The signature of the arguments user is expecting to read from
  msg |
  ... | The pointers in which to store the message arguments

Returns
  EINA_TRUE if the arguments were read successfully and stored in the respective pointer arguments.

References EINA_FALSE.

Eina_Bool eldbus_message_arguments_vget | ( | const Eldbus_Message * | msg,
|  | const char * | signature,
|  | va_list | ap
| ) |  |

Get the arguments from an Eldbus_Message using a va_list.

Parameters

  msg | The message to get the arguments from.
  signature | The signature user is expecting to read from param msg.
  ap | The va_list containing the pointer arguments.

See also
  eldbus_message_arguments_get()

Returns
  EINA_TRUE if the arguments were read successfully and stored in the respective pointer arguments.

References EINA_FALSE.

Eina_Bool eldbus_message_arguments_append | ( | Eldbus_Message * | msg,
|  | const char * | signature,
|  |  | ...
| ) |  |

Append arguments into an Eldbus_Message.

Append arguments into an Eldbus_Message according to the param signature provided. For each complete type in param signature, a value of the corresponding type must be provided.

This function supports only basic types. For complex types use eldbus_message_iter_* family of functions.

Parameters

  msg | The message in which arguments are being appended.
  signature | Signature of the arguments that are being appended.
  ... | Values of each argument to append in param msg.

Returns
  EINA_TRUE on success, EINA_FALSE otherwise.

Eina_Bool eldbus_message_arguments_vappend | ( | Eldbus_Message * | msg,
|  | const char * | signature,
|  | va_list | ap
| ) |  |

Append arguments into an Eldbus_Message using a va_list.

Parameters

  msg | The message in which arguments are being appended.
  signature | Signature of the arguments that are being appended.
  ap | The va_list containing the arguments to append.

See also
  eldbus_message_arguments_append().
