SD_BUS_MESSAGE_SEAL(3)     sd_bus_message_seal    SD_BUS_MESSAGE_SEAL(3)

NAME

       sd_bus_message_seal - Prepare a D-Bus message for transmission

SYNOPSIS

       #include <systemd/sd-bus.h>

       int sd_bus_message_seal(sd_bus_message *m, uint64_t cookie,
                               uint64_t timeout_usec);

DESCRIPTION

       sd_bus_message_seal() finishes the message m and prepares it for
       transmission using sd_bus_send(3).  cookie specifies the
       identifier used to match the message reply to its corresponding
       request.  timeout_usec specifies the maximum time in microseconds
       to wait for a reply to arrive.

       Note that in most scenarios, it's not necessary to call this
       function directly.  sd_bus_call(3), sd_bus_call_async(3) and
       sd_bus_send(3) will seal any given messages if they have not been
       sealed yet.

RETURN VALUE

       On success, this function returns a non-negative integer. On
       failure, it returns a negative errno-style error code.

   Errors
       Returned errors may indicate the following problems:

       -EINVAL
           The m parameter is NULL.

           Added in version 246.

       -EBADMSG
           The D-Bus message m has open containers.

           Added in version 246.

       -ENOMSG
           The D-Bus message m is a reply but its type signature does
           not match the return type signature of its corresponding
           member in the object vtable.

           Added in version 246.

NOTES

       Functions described here are available as a shared library, which
       can be compiled against and linked to with the
       libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.

       The code described here uses getenv(3), which is declared to be
       not multi-thread-safe. This means that the code calling the
       functions described here must not call setenv(3) from a parallel
       thread. It is recommended to only do calls to setenv() from an
       early phase of the program when no other threads have been
       started.

HISTORY

       sd_bus_message_seal() was added in version 246.
