## Implemented Interfaces

MMManager implements GInitable, GAsyncInitable and GDBusObjectManager.

## Description

The MMManager is the object allowing access to the Manager interface.

This object is also a GDBusObjectManagerClient, and therefore it allows to use the standard ObjectManager interface to list and handle the managed modem objects.

## Functions

### mm_manager_peek_proxy ()

    GDBusProxy *
    mm_manager_peek_proxy (MMManager *manager);

Gets the GDBusProxy interface of the `manager` .

#### Parameters

manager | A MMManager. |

#### Returns

The GDBusProxy interface of `manager` , or NULL if none. Do not free the returned object, it is owned by `manager` .

[transfer none]

Since: 1.0

### mm_manager_get_proxy ()

    GDBusProxy *
    mm_manager_get_proxy (MMManager *manager);

Gets the GDBusProxy interface of the `manager` .

#### Parameters

manager | A MMManager. |

#### Returns

The GDBusProxy interface of `manager` , or NULL if none. The returned object must be freed with `g_object_unref()`.

### mm_manager_new ()

    void
    mm_manager_new (GDBusConnection *connection,

When the operation is finished, `callback` will be invoked in the

thread-default main loop

of the thread you are calling this method from.

You can then call `mm_manager_new_finish()` to get the result of the operation.

See `mm_manager_new_sync()` for the synchronous, blocking version of this constructor.

#### Parameters

connection | A GDBusConnection. |
flags | Flags from the GDBusObjectManagerClientFlags enumeration. |

Since: 1.0

### mm_manager_new_finish ()

    MMManager *
    mm_manager_new_finish (GAsyncResult *res,
                           GError **error);

Finishes an operation started with `mm_manager_new()`.

#### Parameters

res | The GAsyncResult obtained from the GAsyncReadyCallback passed to `mm_manager_new()`. |
error | Return location for error or `NULL` |

#### Returns

The constructed object manager client or `NULL` if `error` is set.

Asynchronously requests to scan looking for devices.

When the operation is finished, `callback` will be invoked in the

thread-default main loop

of the thread you are calling this method from. You can then call `mm_manager_scan_devices_finish()` to get the result of the operation.

See `mm_manager_scan_devices_sync()` for the synchronous, blocking version of this method.

Synchronously requests to scan looking for devices.

The calling thread is blocked until a reply is received.

See `mm_manager_scan_devices()` for the asynchronous version of this method.

#### Parameters

manager | A MMManager. |
cancellable | A GCancellable or `NULL`. | [allow-none]

                               gpointer user_data);

Asynchronously requests to add an inhibition on the device identified by `uid` .

The `uid` must be the unique ID retrieved from an existing MMModem using `mm_modem_get_device()`. The caller should keep track of this `uid` and use it in the `mm_manager_uninhibit_device()` call when the inhibition is no longer required.

The inhibition added with this method may also be automatically removed when the caller program disappears from the bus (e.g. if the program ends before having called `mm_manager_uninhibit_device()` explicitly).

When the operation is finished, `callback` will be invoked in the

thread-default main loop

of the thread you are calling this method from. You can then call `mm_manager_inhibit_device_finish()` to get the result of the operation.

See `mm_manager_inhibit_device_sync()` for the synchronous, blocking version of this method.

#### Parameters

manager | A MMManager. |
uid | the unique ID of the physical device. |
cancellable | A GCancellable or `NULL`. | [allow-none]
callback | A GAsyncReadyCallback to call when the request is satisfied or `NULL`. |
