Parsing addresses of D-Bus servers.

Typedef Documentation

DBusAddressEntry

typedef struct DBusAddressEntry DBusAddressEntry

Opaque type representing one of the semicolon-separated items in an address.

Definition at line 41 of file dbus-address.h.

Function Documentation

dbus_address_entries_free()

DBUS_EXPORT void dbus_address_entries_free

(

DBusAddressEntry **

entries

)

Frees a NULL-terminated array of address entries.

Parameters

entries

the array.

Definition at line 192 of file dbus-address.c.

References dbus_free(), and NULL.

dbus_address_entry_get_method()

DBUS_EXPORT const char * dbus_address_entry_get_method

(

DBusAddressEntry *

entry

)

Returns the method string of an address entry.

For example, given the address entry "tcp:host=example.com" it would return the string "tcp"

Parameters

entry

the entry.

Returns

a string describing the method. This string must not be freed.

Definition at line 230 of file dbus-address.c.

dbus_address_entry_get_value()

DBUS_EXPORT const char * dbus_address_entry_get_value	(	DBusAddressEntry *	entry,
		const char *	key
	)

Returns a value from a key of an entry.

For example, given the address "tcp:host=example.com,port=8073" if you asked for the key "host" you would get the value "example.com"

The returned value is already unescaped.

Parameters

entry	the entry.
key	the key.

Returns

the key value. This string must not be freed.

dbus_address_escape_value()

DBUS_EXPORT char * dbus_address_escape_value

(

const char *

value

)

Escapes the given string as a value in a key=value pair for a D-Bus address.

Parameters

value

the unescaped value

Returns

newly-allocated escaped value or NULL if no memory

Definition at line 586 of file dbus-address.c.

References _dbus_address_append_escaped(), _dbus_string_free(), _dbus_string_init(), _dbus_string_init_const(), _dbus_string_steal_data(), and NULL.

dbus_address_unescape_value()

DBUS_EXPORT char * dbus_address_unescape_value	(	const char *	value,
		DBusError *	error
	)

Unescapes the given string as a value in a key=value pair for a D-Bus address.

Note that dbus_address_entry_get_value() returns an already-unescaped value.

Parameters

value	the escaped value
error	error to set if the unescaping fails

Returns

newly-allocated unescaped value or NULL if no memory

Definition at line 620 of file dbus-address.c.

References _dbus_string_init(), _dbus_string_init_const(), and NULL.

dbus_parse_address()

DBUS_EXPORT dbus_bool_t dbus_parse_address	(	const char *	address,
		DBusAddressEntry ***	entry_result,
		int *	array_len,
		DBusError *	error
	)

Parses an address string of the form:

method:key=value,key=value;method:key=value

See the D-Bus specification for complete docs on the format.

When connecting to an address, the first address entries in the semicolon-separated list should be tried first.

Parameters

address	the address.
entry_result	return location to an array of entries.
array_len	return location for array length.
error	address where an error can be returned.

Returns

TRUE on success, FALSE otherwise.
