NAME

sd_bus_list_names - Retrieve information about registered names on a bus  

SYNOPSIS

#include <systemd/sd-bus.h>
int sd_bus_list_names(sd_bus *bus, char ***acquired, char ***activatable);
 

DESCRIPTION

sd_bus_list_names()

retrieves information about the registered names on a bus. If acquired is not NULL, this function calls m[blue]org.freedesktop.DBus.ListNamesm[][1] to retrieve the list of currently-owned names on the bus. If acquired is not NULL, the function calls m[blue]org.freedesktop.DBus.ListActivableNamesm[][2] to retrieve the list of all names on the bus that can be activated. Note that ownership of the arrays returned by sd_bus_list_names() in acquired and activatable is transferred to the caller and hence, the caller is responsible for freeing these arrays and their contents.  

RETURN VALUE

On success, sd_bus_list_names() returns a non-negative integer. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style error code.  

Errors

Returned errors may indicate the following problems:

-EINVAL

bus or both acquired and activatable were NULL.

-ENOPKG

The bus cannot be resolved.

-ECHILD

The bus was created in a different process.

-ENOMEM

Memory allocation failed.

-ENOTCONN

The bus is not connected.
 

NOTES

These APIs are implemented as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with the libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.
