Struct dbus::Message

pub struct Message { /* private fields */ }

A D-Bus message. A message contains some headers (e g sender and destination address) and a list of MessageItems.

pub fn get_items(&self) -> Vec<MessageItem>

Get the MessageItems that make up the message.

Note: use iter_init or get1/get2/etc instead for faster access to the arguments. This method is provided for backwards compatibility.

pub fn get_serial(&self) -> u32

pub fn get_reply_serial(&self) -> Option<u32>

Get the serial of the message this message is a reply to, if present.

pub fn get_no_reply(&self) -> bool

Returns true if the message does not expect a reply.

pub fn set_no_reply(&self, v: bool)

Set whether or not the message expects a reply.

Set to true if you send a method call and do not want a reply.

pub fn get_auto_start(&self) -> bool

Returns true if the message can cause a service to be auto-started.

pub fn set_auto_start(&self, v: bool)

Sets whether or not the message can cause a service to be auto-started.

Defaults to true.
