Hi everybody,
as an absolute beginner to vala I'm having a hard time to understand how
I should use the add_filter() method in DBusConnection class.
Excuse me if they are a lot of questions ...
1) The valadoc gives the following description for
DBusConnection.add_filter():
public uint add_filter (DBusMessageFilterFunction filter_function,
DestroyNotify user_data_free_func)
but this doesn't seem to match the corresponding method in gio:
guint g_dbus_connection_add_filter (GDBusConnection *connection,
GDBusMessageFilterFunction filter_function, gpointer user_data,
GDestroyNotify user_data_free_func);
where is the user_data pointer in the vala's equivalent method?
2) About the FilterFunction to be passed to add_event(), valadoc gives
the following description:
public bool DBusMessageFilterFunction (DBusConnection connection,
DBusMessage message, bool incoming)
but again this doesn't seem to match the corresponding method in gio:
GDBusMessage *(*GDBusMessageFilterFunction) (GDBusConnection
*connection, GDBusMessage *message, gboolean incoming, gpointer
user_data);
again due to the user_data parameter being missing in the vala's method.
And when should it return true or false?
3) Moreover, how should I define the filter_function? I've tried the
following:
private bool MyFilterMsg (DBusConnection connection,
DBusMessage message,
bool incoming)
{
return true;
}
...
uint filter_uid = connection.add_filter (MyFilterMsg, ...)
but then the compiler complains that it cannot convert from MyFilterMsg
to GLib.DBusMessageFilter.
Thanks in advance.
