/**
* @defgroup DBusBus Message bus APIs
* @ingroup DBus
* @brief Functions for communicating with the message bus
*
+ * dbus_bus_get() allows all modules and libraries in a given
+ * process to share the same connection to the bus daemon by storing
+ * the connection globally.
+ *
+ * All other functions in this module are just convenience functions;
+ * most of them invoke methods on the bus daemon, by sending method
+ * call messages to #DBUS_SERVICE_DBUS. These convenience functions
+ * often make blocking method calls. If you don't want to block,
+ * you can send the method call messages manually in the same way
+ * you would any other method call message.
+ *
+ * This module is the only one in libdbus that's specific to
+ * communicating with the message bus daemon. The rest of the API can
+ * also be used for connecting to another application directly.
+ *
* @todo right now the default address of the system bus is hardcoded,
* so if you change it in the global config file suddenly you have to
* set DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS env variable. Might be nice if the
* Block of message-bus-related data we attach to each
* #DBusConnection used with these convenience functions.
*
- *
- * @todo get rid of most of these; they should be done
- * with DBusGProxy and the Qt equivalent, i.e. the same
- * way any other interface would be used.

+/**
+ * Asks the bus to assign the given name to this connection by invoking
+ * the RequestName method on the bus. This method is fully documented
+ * in the D-Bus specification. For quick reference, the flags and
+ * result codes are discussed here, but the specification is the
+ * canonical version of this information.
+ *
+ * First you should know that for each bus name, the bus stores
+ * a queue of connections that would like to own it. Only
+ * one owns it at a time - called the primary owner. If the primary
+ * owner releases the name or disconnects, then the next owner in the
+ * queue atomically takes over.
+ *
+ * So for example if you have an application org.freedesktop.TextEditor
+ * and multiple instances of it can be run, you can have all of them
+ * sitting in the queue. The first one to start up will receive messages
+ * sent to org.freedesktop.TextEditor, but if that one exits another
+ * will become the primary owner and receive messages.
+ *
+ * The queue means you don't need to manually watch for the current owner to
+ * disappear and then request the name again.
+ *
+ * When requesting a name, you can specify several flags.
+ *
+ * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT and #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE
+ * are properties stored by the bus for this connection with respect to
+ * each requested bus name. These properties are stored even if the
+ * connection is queued and does not become the primary owner.
+ * You can update these flags by calling RequestName again (even if
+ * you already own the name).
+ *
+ * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT means that another requestor of the
+ * name can take it away from you by specifying #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING.
+ *
+ * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE means that if you aren't the primary owner,
+ * you don't want to be queued up - you only care about being the
+ * primary owner.
+ *
+ * Unlike the other two flags, #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING is a property
+ * of the individual RequestName call, i.e. the bus does not persistently
+ * associate it with the connection-name pair. If a RequestName call includes
+ * the #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING flag, and the current primary
+ * owner has #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT set, then the current primary
+ * owner will be kicked off.
+ *
+ * If no flags are given, an application will receive the requested
+ * name only if the name is currently unowned; and it will NOT give
+ * up the name if another application asks to take it over using
+ * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING.
+ *
+ * This function returns a result code. The possible result codes
+ * are as follows.
+ *
+ * #DBUS_REQUEST_NAME_REPLY_PRIMARY_OWNER means that the name had no
+ * existing owner, and the caller is now the primary owner; or that
+ * the name had an owner, and the caller specified
+ * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING, and the current owner
+ * specified #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT.
+ *
+ * #DBUS_REQUEST_NAME_REPLY_IN_QUEUE happens only if the caller does NOT
+ * specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE and either the current owner
+ * did NOT specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT or the caller did NOT
+ * specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING. In this case the caller ends up
+ * in a queue to own the name after the current owner gives it up.
+ *
+ * #DBUS_REQUEST_NAME_REPLY_EXISTS happens if the name has an owner
+ * already and the caller specifies #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE
+ * and either the current owner has NOT specified
+ * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT or the caller did NOT specify
+ * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING.
+ *
+ * #DBUS_REQUEST_NAME_REPLY_ALREADY_OWNER happens if an application
+ * requests a name it already owns. (Re-requesting a name is useful if
+ * you want to change the #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT or
+ * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_DO_NOT_QUEUE settings.)
+ *
+ * When a service represents an application, say "text editor," then
+ * it should specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT if it wants
+ * the last editor started to be the user's editor vs. the first one
+ * started. Then any editor that can be the user's editor should
+ * specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING to either take over
+ * (last-started-wins) or be queued up (first-started-wins) according
+ * to whether #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT was given.
+ *
+ * Conventionally, single-instance applications often offer a command
+ * line option called --replace which means to replace the current
+ * instance. To implement this, always set
+ * #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_ALLOW_REPLACEMENT when you request your
+ * application's bus name. When you lose ownership of your bus name,
+ * you need to exit. Look for the signal "NameLost" from
+ * #DBUS_SERVICE_DBUS and #DBUS_INTERFACE_DBUS (the signal's first
+ * argument is the bus name that was lost). If starting up without
+ * --replace, do not specify #DBUS_NAME_FLAG_REPLACE_EXISTING, and
+ * exit if you fail to become the bus name owner. If --replace is
+ * given, ask to replace the old owner.
*
* @param connection the connection
- * @param service_name the service name
+ * @param name the name to request
* @param flags flags
* @param error location to store the error
* @returns a result code, -1 if error is set

+ * possible errors (including a lack of resources in the bus, the connection
+ * having exceeded its quota of active match rules, or the match rule being
+ * unparseable) are generally unrecoverable.

+ * block until it gets a reply. This may be useful when using match rule keys
+ * introduced in recent versions of D-Bus, like 'arg0namespace', to allow the
+ * application to fall back to less efficient match rules supported by older
+ * versions of the daemon if the running version is not new enough; or when
+ * using user-supplied rules rather than rules hard-coded at compile time.
*
* Normal API conventions would have the function return
* a boolean value indicating whether the error was set,
* but that would require blocking always to determine
* the return value.
+ *
+ * The AddMatch method is fully documented in the D-Bus
+ * specification. For quick reference, the format of the
+ * match rules is discussed here, but the specification
+ * is the canonical version of this information.
+ *
+ * Rules are specified as a string of comma separated
+ * key/value pairs. An example is
+ * "type='signal',sender='org.freedesktop.DBus',
+ * interface='org.freedesktop.DBus',member='Foo',
+ * path='/bar/foo',destination=':452345.34'"
+ *
+ * Possible keys you can match on are type, sender,
+ * interface, member, path, destination and numbered
+ * keys to match message args (keys are 'arg0', 'arg1', etc.).
+ * Omitting a key from the rule indicates
+ * a wildcard match. For instance omitting
+ * the member from a match rule but adding a sender would
+ * let all messages from that sender through regardless of
+ * the member.
+ *
+ * Matches are inclusive not exclusive so as long as one
+ * rule matches the message will get through. It is important
+ * to note this because every time a message is received the
+ * application will be paged into memory to process it. This
+ * can cause performance problems such as draining batteries
+ * on embedded platforms.
+ *
+ * If you match message args ('arg0', 'arg1', and so forth)
+ * only string arguments will match. That is, arg0='5' means
+ * match the string "5" not the integer 5.
+ *
+ * Currently there is no way to match against non-string arguments.
+ *
+ * A specialised form of wildcard matching on arguments is
+ * supported for path-like namespaces. If your argument match has
+ * a 'path' suffix (eg: "arg0path='/some/path/'") then it is
+ * considered a match if the argument exactly matches the given
+ * string or if one of them ends in a '/' and is a prefix of the
+ * other.
+ *
+ * Matching on interface is tricky because method call
+ * messages only optionally specify the interface.
+ * If a message omits the interface, then it will NOT match
+ * if the rule specifies an interface name. This means match
+ * rules on method calls should not usually give an interface.
+ *
+ * However, signal messages are required to include the interface
+ * so when matching signals usually you should specify the interface
+ * in the match rule.
*
+ * For security reasons, you can match arguments only up to
+ * #DBUS_MAXIMUM_MATCH_RULE_ARG_NUMBER.
+ *
+ * Match rules have a maximum length of #DBUS_MAXIMUM_MATCH_RULE_LENGTH
+ * bytes.
+ *
+ * Both of these maximums are much higher than you're likely to need,
+ * they only exist because the D-Bus bus daemon has fixed limits on
+ * all resource usage.
