D-Bus method parameter names in introspection XML

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi guys,

sd-bus implements and automatically provides org.freedesktop.DBus.Introspectable interface for each object vtable. Xml output of Introspect method of that interface provides all necessary information but one -- names of method parameters.

It's quite convenient that when one introspects a service and its interfaces, he wants very much to see names of method parameters. Naming of parameters adds a whole different level of self-expressiveness and clarity to interface description. D-Bus specification (https://dbus.freedesktop.org/doc/dbus-specification.html#introspection-format) mentions names of method parameters as well.

Are there any ways to solve this on sd-bus user side? Either way, would it be possible to extend sd-bus vtable registration and introspection facilities to incorporate names of method parameters?

Thank you.

Stanislav,
sdbus-c++ maintainer.
