Thanks to gdbus-codegen tool used to generate code for one or more D-Bus interfaces , Dbus programming is made very easy . It creates a wrapper on top of the current Dbus binding in C code using the glib library by generating the .c and the .h files by taking the dbus introspection or the xml.
Example of generating a codegen files is shown pictorially below
Usage
gdbus-codegen –interface-prefix org.project.Prefix –generate-c-code outfiles xmlfiles
Ex:gdbus-codegen –interface-prefix My.sample –generate-c-code samplegencode My.Sample.Service.xml
This command can be used both on the client side as well as the server side to generate the helper .c and .h which contains the server side as well as the client side function definition as well as declarations.
Installation in debain linux
