+ \title Using QtDBus Adaptors
+ \brief How to create and use DBus adaptors in Qt.
+
+ \ingroup best-practices
+
+ Adaptors are special classes that are attached to any QObject-derived class
+ and provide the interface to the external world using D-Bus. Adaptors are
+ intended to be lightweight classes whose main purpose is to relay calls to
+ and from the real object, possibly validating or converting the input from
+ the external world and, thus, protecting the real object.
+
+ Unlike multiple inheritance, adaptors can be added at any time to any object
+ (but not removed), which allows for greater flexibility when exporting
+ existing classes. Another advantage of adaptors is to provide similar but not
+ identical functionality in methods of the same name in different interfaces,
+ a case which can be quite common when adding a new version of a standard
+ interface to an object.
+
+ In order to use an adaptor, one must create a class which inherits
+ QDBusAbstractAdaptor. Since that is a standard QObject-derived class, the
+ Q_OBJECT macro must appear in the declaration and the source file must be
+ processed with the \l {moc} tool. The class must also contain one
+ Q_CLASSINFO entry with the \c {"D-Bus Interface"} name, declaring which
+ interface it is exporting. Only one entry per class is supported.
+
+ Any public slot in the class will be accessible through the bus over messages
+ of the MethodCall type. (See \l {Declaring Slots in D-Bus Adaptors} for more
+ information). Signals in the class will be automatically relayed over D-Bus.
+ However, not all types are allowed signals or slots' parameter lists: see
+ \l {The QtDBus Type System} for more information.
+
+ Also, any property declared with Q_PROPERTY will be automatically exposed
+ over the Properties interface on D-Bus. Since the QObject property system
+ does not allow for non-readable properties, it is not possible to declare
+ write-only properties using adaptors.

+ \title D-Bus Adaptor Example
+
+ \previouspage The QtDBus Type System
+ \contentspage Using QtDBus Adaptors
+
+ The following example code shows how a D-Bus interface can be implemented
+ using an adaptor.
+
+ A sample usage of QDBusAbstractAdaptor is as follows:
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 0
+
+ The code above would create an interface that could be represented more or less in the following
+ canonical representation:
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 1
+
+ This adaptor could be used in the application's main function as follows
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 2
+
+ Break-down analysis:
+ \tableofcontents
+
+ \section1 The header
+
+ The header of the example is:
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 3
+
+ The code does the following:
+ \list
+ \li it declares the adaptor MainApplicationAdaptor, which descends from QDBusAbstractAdaptor
+ \li it declares the Qt meta-object data using the Q_OBJECT macro
+ \li it declares the name of the D-Bus interface it implements.
+ \endlist
+
+ \section1 The properties
+
+ The properties are declared as follows:
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 4
+
+ And are implemented as follows:
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 5
+
+ The code declares three properties: one of them is a read-write property called "caption" of
+ string type. The other two are read-only, also of the string type.
+
+ The properties organizationName and organizationDomain are simple relays of the app object's
+ organizationName and organizationDomain properties. However, the caption property requires
+ verifying if the application has a main window associated with it: if there isn't any, the
+ caption property is empty. Note how it is possible to access data defined in other objects
+ through the getter/setter functions.
+
+ \section1 The constructor
+
+ The constructor:
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 6
+
+ The constructor does the following:
+ \list
+ \li it initialises its base class (QDBusAbstractAdaptor) with the parent object it is related to.
+ \li it stores the app pointer in a member variable. Note that it would be possible to access the
+ same object using the QDBusAbstractAdaptor::object() function, but it would be necessary to
+ use \a static_cast<> to properly access the methods in QApplication that are not part of
+ QObject.
+ \li it connects the application's signal \a aboutToQuit to its own signal \a aboutToQuit.
+ \li it connects the application's signal \a focusChanged to a private slot to do some further
+ processing before emitting a D-Bus signal.
+ \endlist
+
+ Note that there is no destructor in the example. An eventual destructor could be used to emit
+ one last signal before the object is destroyed, for instance.
+
+ \section1 Slots/methods
+
+ The public slots in the example (which will be exported as D-Bus methods) are the following:
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 7
+
+ This snippet of code defines 4 methods with different properties each:
+ \list 1
+ \li \c quit: this method takes no parameters and is defined to be asynchronous. That is, callers
+ are expected to use "fire-and-forget" mechanism when calling this method, since it provides no
+ useful reply. This is represented in D-Bus by the use of the
+ org.freedesktop.DBus.Method.NoReply annotation. See \l Q_NOREPLY for more information on
+ asynchronous methods
+
+ \li \c reparseConfiguration: this simple method, with no input or output arguments simply relays
+ the call to the application's reparseConfiguration member function.
+
+ \li \c mainWindowObject: this method takes no input parameter, but returns one string output
+ argument, containing the path to the main window object (if the application has a main
+ window), or an empty string if it has no main window. Note that this method could have also
+ been written: void mainWindowObject(QString &path).
+
+ \li \c setSessionManagement: this method takes one input argument (a boolean) and, depending on
+ its value, it calls one function or another in the application.
+ \endlist
+
+ See also: \l Q_NOREPLY.
+
+ \section1 Signals
+
+ The signals in this example are defined as follows:
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 8
+
+ However, signal definition isn't enough: signals have to be emitted. One simple way of emitting
+ signals is to connect another signal to them, so that Qt's signal handling system chains them
+ automatically. This is what is done for the \a aboutToQuit signal.
+
+ When this is the case, one can use the QDBusAbstractAdaptor::setAutoRelaySignals to
+ automatically connect every signal from the real object to the adaptor.
+
+ When simple signal-to-signal connection isn't enough, one can use a private slot do do some
+ work. This is what was done for the mainWindowHasFocus signal:
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 9
+
+ This private slot (which will not be exported as a method via D-Bus) was connected to the
+ \c focusChanged signal in the adaptor's constructor. It is therefore able to shape the
+ application's signal into what the interface expects it to be.

+/*!
+ \page qdbusdeclaringslots.html
+ \title Declaring Slots in D-Bus Adaptors
+
+ \contentspage Using QtDBus Adaptors
+ \nextpage Declaring Signals in D-Bus Adaptors
+
+ Slots in D-Bus adaptors are declared just like normal, public slots, but their
+ parameters must follow certain rules (see \l{The QtDBus Type System} for more
+ information). Slots whose parameters do not follow those rules or that are not
+ public will not be accessible via D-Bus.
+
+ Slots can have one parameter of type \c{const QDBusMessage &}, which must
+ appear at the end of the input parameter list, before any output parameters.
+ This parameter, if present, will be initialized with a copy of the
+ current message being processed, which allows the callee to obtain
+ information about the caller, such as its connection name.
+
+ Slots can be of three kinds:
+ \list 1
+ \li Asynchronous
+ \li Input-only
+ \li Input-and-output
+ \endlist
+
+ \section1 Asynchronous Slots
+ Asynchronous slots are those that do not normally return any reply to the
+ caller. For that reason, they cannot take any output parameters. In most
+ cases, by the time the first line of the slot is run, the caller function
+ has already resumed working.
+
+ However, slots must not rely on that behavior. Scheduling and message-dispatching
+ issues could change the order in which the slot is run. Code intending to
+ synchronize with the caller should provide its own method of synchronization.
+
+ Asynchronous slots are marked by the keyword \l Q_NOREPLY in the method
+ signature, before the \c void return type and the slot name. (See the
+ \c quit() slot in the \l{D-Bus Adaptor Example}).
+
+ \section1 Input-Only Slots
+
+ Input-only slots are normal slots that take parameters passed by value or
+ by constant reference. However, unlike asynchronous slots, the caller is
+ usually waiting for completion of the callee before resuming operation.
+ Therefore, non-asynchronous slots should not block or should state it its
+ documentation that they may do so.
+
+ Input-only slots have no special marking in their signature, except that
+ they take only parameters passed by value or by constant reference.
+ Optionally, slots can take a QDBusMessage parameter as a last parameter,
+ which can be used to perform additional analysis of the method call message.
+
+ \section1 Input and Output Slots
+
+ Like input-only slots, input-and-output slots are those that the caller is
+ waiting for a reply. Unlike input-only ones, though, this reply will contain
+ data. Slots that output data may contain non-constant references and may
+ return a value as well. However, the output parameters must all appear at
+ the end of the argument list and may not have input arguments interleaved.
+ Optionally, a QDBusMessage argument may appear between the input and the
+ output arguments.
+
+ \section1 Automatic Replies
+
+ Method replies are generated automatically with the contents of the output
+ parameters (if there were any) by the QtDBus implementation. Slots need not
+ worry about constructing proper QDBusMessage objects and sending them over
+ the connection.
+
+ However, the possibility of doing so remains there. Should the slot find out
+ it needs to send a special reply or even an error, it can do so by using
+ QDBusMessage::createReply() or QDBusMessage::createErrorReply() on the
+ QDBusMessage parameter and send it with QDBusConnection::send(). The
+ QtDBus implementation will not generate any reply if the slot did so.
+
+ \warning When a caller places a method call and waits for a reply, it will
+ only wait for a limited amount of time. Slots intending to take a long time
+ to complete should make that fact clear in documentation so that callers
+ properly set higher timeouts.
+
+ \section1 Delayed Replies
+
+ In some circumstances, the called slot may not be able to process
+ the request immediately. This is frequently the case when the
+ request involves an I/O or networking operation which may block.
+
+ If this is the case, the slot should return control to the
+ application's main loop to avoid freezing the user interface, and
+ resume the process later. To accomplish this, it should make use
+ of the extra \c QDBusMessage parameter at the end of the input
+ parameter list and request a delayed reply.
+
+ We do this by writing a slot that stores the request data in a
+ persistent structure, indicating to the caller using
+ \l{QDBusMessage::setDelayedReply()}{QDBusMessage::setDelayedReply(true)}
+ that the response will be sent later.
+
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 10
+
+ The use of
+ \l{QDBusConnection::send()}{QDBusConnection::sessionBus().send(data->reply)}
+ is needed to explicitly inform the caller that the response will be delayed.
+ In this case, the return value is unimportant; we return an arbitrary value
+ to satisfy the compiler.
+
+ When the request is processed and a reply is available, it should be sent
+ using the \c QDBusMessage object that was obtained. In our example, the
+ reply code could be something as follows:
+
+ \snippet code/doc_src_qdbusadaptors.cpp 11
+
+ As can be seen in the example, when a delayed reply is in place,
+ the return value(s) from the slot will be ignored by QtDBus. They
+ are used only to determine the slot's signature when communicating
+ the adaptor's description to remote applications, or in case the
+ code in the slot decides not to use a delayed reply.
+
+ The delayed reply itself is requested from QtDBus by calling
+ QDBusMessage::reply() on the original message. It then becomes the
+ resposibility of the called code to eventually send a reply to the
+ caller.
+
+ \warning When a caller places a method call and waits for a reply, it will
+ only wait for a limited amount of time. Slots intending to take a long time
+ to complete should make that fact clear in documentation so that callers
+ properly set higher timeouts.

+
+ D-Bus has an extensible type system based on a few primitives and
+ composition of the primitives in arrays and structures. QtDBus
+ implements the interface to that type system through the
+ QDBusArgument class, allowing user programs to send and receive
+ practically every C++ type over the bus.
+
+ \section1 Primitive Types
+
+ The primitive types are supported natively by QDBusArgument and
+ need no special customization to be sent or received. They are
+ listed below, along with the C++ class they relate to:
+
+ \table
+ \header
+ \li Qt type
+ \li D-Bus equivalent type
+ \row
+ \li uchar
+ \li BYTE
+ \row
+ \li bool
+ \li BOOLEAN
+ \row
+ \li short
+ \li INT16
+ \row
+ \li ushort
+ \li UINT16
+ \row
+ \li int

+ \li STRING
+ \row
+ \li QDBusVariant
+ \li VARIANT
+ \row
+ \li QDBusObjectPath
+ \li OBJECT_PATH
+ \row
+ \li QDBusSignature
+ \li SIGNATURE
+ \endtable
+
+ Aside from the primitive types, QDBusArgument also supports two
+ non-primitive types natively, due to their widespread use in Qt
+ applications: QStringList and QByteArray.
+
+ \section1 Compound Types
+
+ D-Bus specifies three types of aggregations of primitive types
+ that allow one to create compound types. They are \c ARRAY, \c
+ STRUCT and maps/dictionaries.
+
+ Arrays are sets of zero or more elements of the same type, while
+ structures are a set of a fixed number of elements, each of any
+ type. Maps or dictionaries are implemented as arrays of a pair of
+ elements, so there can be zero or more elements in one map.
+
+ \section1 Extending the Type System
+
+ In order to use one's own type with QtDBus, the type has to be
+ declared as a Qt meta-type with the Q_DECLARE_METATYPE() macro and
+ registered with the qDBusRegisterMetaType() function. The
+ streaming operators \c{operator>>} and \c{operator<<} will be
+ automatically found by the registration system.
+
+ QtDBus provides template specializations for arrays and maps for
+ use with Qt's \l{Container classes}{container classes}, such as
+ QMap and QList, so it is not necessary to write the streaming
+ operator functions for those. For other types, and specially for
+ types implementing structures, the operators have to be explicitly
+ implemented.
+
+ See the documentation for QDBusArgument for examples for
+ structures, arrays and maps.
+
+ \section1 The Type System in Use
+
+ All of the QtDBus types (primitives and user-defined alike) can be
+ used to send and receive messages of all types over the bus.
+
+ \warning You may not use any type that is not on the list above,
+ including \a typedefs to the types listed. This also includes
+ QList<QVariant> and QMap<QString,QVariant>.

+
+/*!
+ \macro Q_NOREPLY

+
+ The Q_NOREPLY macro can be used to mark a method to be called and not wait for it to finish

+ output arguments and, if it does, any such arguments will be discarded.
+
+ You can use this macro in your own adaptors by placing it before your method's return value
+ (which must be "void") in the class declaration, as shown in the example:

+ \page intro-to-dbus.html
+ \title D-Bus
+ \brief An introduction to Inter-Process Communication and Remote Procedure Calling with D-Bus.
+
+ \keyword QtDBus
+ \ingroup technology-apis
+
+ \section1 Introduction
+
+ D-Bus is an Inter-Process Communication (IPC) and Remote Procedure
+ Calling (RPC) mechanism originally developed for Linux to replace
+ existing and competing IPC solutions with one unified protocol. It
+ has also been designed to allow communication between system-level
+ processes (such as printer and hardware driver services) and
+ normal user processes.
+
+ It uses a fast, binary message-passing protocol, which is suitable
+ for same-machine communication due to its low latency and low
+ overhead. Its specification is currently defined by the
+ \tt{freedesktop.org} project, and is available to all parties.
+
+ Communication in general happens through a central server
+ application, called the "bus" (hence the name), but direct
+ application-to-application communication is also possible. When
+ communicating on a bus, applications can query which other
+ applications and services are available, as well as activate one
+ on demand.
+
+ \section1 The Buses
+
+ D-Bus buses are used to when many-to-many communication is
+ desired. In order to achieve that, a central server is launched
+ before any applications can connect to the bus: this server is
+ responsible for keeping track of the applications that are
+ connected and for properly routing messages from their source to
+ their destination.
+
+ In addition, D-Bus defines two well-known buses, called the
+ system bus and the session bus. These buses are special in the
+ sense that they have well-defined semantics: some services are
+ defined to be found in one or both of these buses.
+
+ For example, an application wishing to query the list of hardware
+ devices attached to the computer will probably communicate to a
+ service available on the system bus, while the service providing
+ opening of the user's web browser will be probably found on the
+ session bus.
+
+ On the system bus, one can also expect to find restrictions on
+ what services each application is allowed to offer. Therefore, one
+ can be reasonably certain that, if a certain service is present,
+ it is being offered by a trusted application.
+
+ \section1 Concepts
+
+ \section2 Messages
+
+ On the low level, applications communicate over D-Bus by sending
+ messages to one another. Messages are used to relay the remote
+ procedure calls as well as the replies and errors associated
+ with them. When used over a bus, messages have a destination,
+ which means they are routed only to the interested parties,
+ avoiding congestion due to "swarming" or broadcasting.
+
+ A special kind of message called a "signal message"
+ (a concept based on Qt's \l {Signals and Slots} mechanism),
+ however, does not have a pre-defined destination. Since its
+ purpose is to be used in a one-to-many context, signal messages
+ are designed to work over an "opt-in" mechanism.
+
+ The QtDBus module fully encapsulates the low-level concept of
+ messages into a simpler, object-oriented approach familiar to Qt
+ developers. In most cases, the developer need not worry about
+ sending or receiving messages.
+
+ \section2 Service Names
+
+ When communicating over a bus, applications obtain what is
+ called a "service name": it is how that application chooses to be
+ known by other applications on the same bus. The service names
+ are brokered by the D-Bus bus daemon and are used to
+ route messages from one application to another. An analogous
+ concept to service names are IP addresses and hostnames: a
+ computer normally has one IP address and may have one or more
+ hostnames associated with it, according to the services that it
+ provides to the network.
+
+ On the other hand, if a bus is not used, service names are also
+ not used. If we compare this to a computer network again, this
+ would equate to a point-to-point network: since the peer is
+ known, there is no need to use hostnames to find it or its IP
+ address.
+
+ The format of a D-Bus service name is in fact very similar to a
+ host name: it is a dot-separated sequence of letters and
+ digits. The common practice is even to name one's service name
+ according to the domain name of the organization that defined
+ that service.
+
+ For example, the D-Bus service is defined by
+ \tt{freedesktop.org} and can be found on the bus under the
+ service name:
+
+ \snippet code/doc_src_introtodbus.qdoc 0
+
+ \section2 Object Paths
+
+ Like network hosts, applications provide specific services to
+ other applications by exporting objects. Those objects are
+ hierarchically organised, much like the parent-child
+ relationship that classes derived from QObject possess. One
+ difference, however, is that there is the concept of "root
+ object", that all objects have as ultimate parent.
+
+ If we continue our analogy with Web services, object paths
+ equate to the path part of a URL:
+
+ \img qurl-ftppath.png
+
+ Like them, object paths in D-Bus are formed resembling path
+ names on the filesystem: they are slash-separated labels, each
+ consisting of letters, digits and the underscore character
+ ("_"). They must always start with a slash and must not end with
+ one.
+
+ \section2 Interfaces
+
+ Interfaces are similar to C++ abstract classes and Java's
+ \c interface keyword and declare the "contract" that is
+ established between caller and callee. That is, they establish
+ the names of the methods, signals and properties that are
+ available as well as the behavior that is expected from either
+ side when communication is established.
+
+ Qt uses a very similar mechanism in its \l {How to Create Qt
+ Plugins}{Plugin system}: Base classes in C++ are associated
+ with a unique identifier by way of the Q_DECLARE_INTERFACE()
+ macro.
+
+ D-Bus interface names are, in fact, named in a manner similar to
+ what is suggested by the Qt Plugin System: an identifier usually
+ constructed from the domain name of the entity that defined that
+ interface.
+
+ \section2 Cheat Sheet
+
+ To facilitate remembering of the naming formats and their
+ purposes, the following table can be used:
+
+ \table 90%
+ \header \li D-Bus Concept \li Analogy \li Name format
+ \row \li Service name \li Network hostnames \li Dot-separated
+ ("looks like a hostname")
+ \row \li Object path \li URL path component \li Slash-separated
+ ("looks like a path")
+ \row \li Interface \li Plugin identifier \li Dot-separated

+ When developing applications that use D-Bus, it is sometimes useful to be able
+ to see information about the messages that are sent and received across the
+ bus by each application.
+
+ This feature can be enabled on a per-application basis by setting the
+ \c QDBUS_DEBUG environment variable before running each application.
+ For example, we can enable debugging only for the car in the
+ \l{D-Bus Remote Controlled Car Example} by running the controller and the
+ car in the following way:
+
+ \snippet code/doc_src_introtodbus.qdoc QDBUS_DEBUG
+
+ Information about the messages will be written to the console the application
+ was launched from.
+
+ \section1 Further Reading
+
+ The following documents contain information about Qt's D-Bus integration
+ features, and provide details about the mechanisms used to send and receive
+ type information over the bus:
+
+ \list

+ \title QtDBus XML compiler (qdbusxml2cpp)
+ \keyword qdbusxml2cpp
+
+ The QtDBus XML compiler is a tool that can be used to parse interface descriptions and produce
+ static code representing those interfaces, which can then be used to make calls to remote
+ objects or implement said interfaces.
+
+ \c qdbusxml2cpp has two modes of operation, that correspond to the two possible outputs it can
+ produce: the interface (proxy) class or the adaptor class. The latter consists of both a C++
+ header and a source file, which are meant to be edited and adapted to your needs.
+
+ The \c qdbusxml2cpp tool is not meant to be run every time you compile your
+ application. Instead, it's meant to be used when developing the code or when the interface
+ changes.
+
+ The adaptor classes generated by \c qdbusxml2cpp are just a skeleton that must be completed. It
+ generates, by default, calls to slots with the same name on the object the adaptor is attached
+ to. However, you may modify those slots or the property accessor functions to suit your needs.
