Description Nallammai 2007-01-31 20:58:28 UTC

This patch is intended to provide new glib API's that allows the user to specify the timeout parameter for the method calls. 
Currently, in the dbus-glib APIs,the timeout value for synchronous and asynchronous method calls is hard coded as -1(ie.25seconds) which inhibits the user from specifying shorter or longer timeout values.The new APIs take the timeout value as an argument and processes the method calls.

A diff file with the new dbus-glib APIs

The patch contains two new dbus-glib APIs
(i) dbus_g_proxy_call_with_timeout ( DBusGProxy *proxy,
                                     const char *method,
                                     int timeout,
                                     GError **error,
                                     GType first_arg_type,
                                     ...) ;
    This function invokes the method synchronously.

(ii) dbus_g_proxy_begin_call_with_timeout ( DBusGProxy *proxy,
                                            const char *method,
                                            DBusGProxyCallNotify notify,
                                            gpointer user_data,
                                            GDestroyNotify destroy,
                                            int timeout,
                                            GType first_arg_type,
                                            ...) ;
      This function invokes the method asynchronously.

Thanks Nallammai, these look good. Committed in git head.
