98 <title>Description</title>
99
100 <para><function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> adds a peer to track to a bus peer tracking object. The first
101 argument should refer to a bus peer tracking object created with
102 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_track_new</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>, the second
103 name should refer to a D-Bus peer name to track, either in unique or well-known service format. If the name is not
104 tracked yet it will be added to the list of names to track. If it already is being tracked and non-recursive mode
105 is enabled, no operation is executed by this call. If recursive mode is enabled a per-name counter is increased by
106 one each time this call is invoked, and <function>sd_bus_track_remove_name()</function> has to be called as many
107 times as <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> was invoked before in order to stop tracking of the name. Use
108 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_track_set_recursive</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> to
109 switch from the default non-recursive mode to recursive mode, or back. Note that the specified name is tracked as
110 it is, well-known names are not resolved to unique names by this call. Note that multiple bus peer tracking objects
111 may track the same name.</para>
112
113 <para><function>sd_bus_track_remove_name()</function> undoes the effect of
114 <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> and removes a bus peer name from the list of peers to watch. Depending
115 on whether non-recursive or recursive mode is enabled for the bus peer tracking object this call will either remove
116 the name fully from the tracking object, or will simply decrement the per-name counter by one, removing the name
117 only when the counter reaches zero (see above). Note that a bus peer disconnecting from the bus will implicitly
118 remove its names fully from the bus peer tracking object, regardless of the current per-name counter.</para>
119
120 <para><function>sd_bus_track_add_sender()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_remove_sender()</function> are
121 similar to <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_remove_name()</function> but
122 take a bus message as argument. The sender of this bus message is determined and added to/removed from the bus peer
123 tracking object. As messages always originate from unique names, and never from well-known names this means that
124 this call will effectively only add unique names to the bus peer tracking object.</para>
125
126 <para><function>sd_bus_track_count()</function> returns the number of names currently being tracked by the
127 specified bus peer tracking object. Note that this function always returns the actual number of names tracked, and
128 hence if <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> has been invoked multiple times for the same name it is only
129 counted as one, regardless if recursive mode is used or not.</para>
130
131 <para><function>sd_bus_track_count_name()</function> returns the current per-name counter for the specified
132 name. If non-recursive mode is used this returns either 1 or 0, depending on whether the specified name has been
133 added to the tracking object before, or not. If recursive mode has been enabled, values larger than 1 may be
134 returned too, in case <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> has been called multiple times for the same
135 name.</para>
136
137 <para><function>sd_bus_track_count_sender()</function> is similar to
138 <function>sd_bus_track_count_name()</function>, but takes a bus message object and returns the per-name counter
139 matching the sender of the message.</para>
140
141 <para><function>sd_bus_track_contains()</function> may be used to determine whether the specified name has been
142 added at least once to the specified bus peer tracking object.</para>
143
144 <para><function>sd_bus_track_first()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_next()</function> may be used to
145 enumerate all names currently being tracked by the passed bus peer tracking
146 object. <function>sd_bus_track_first()</function> returns the first entry in the object, and resets an internally
147 maintained read index. Each subsequent invocation of <function>sd_bus_track_next()</function> returns the next name
148 contained in the bus object. If the end is reached <constant>NULL</constant> is returned. If no names have been
149 added to the object yet <function>sd_bus_track_first()</function> will return <constant>NULL</constant>
150 immediately. The order in which names are returned is undefined; in particular which name is considered the first
151 returned is not defined. If recursive mode is enabled and the same name has been added multiple times to the bus
152 peer tracking object it is only returned once by this enumeration. If new names are added to or existing names
153 removed from the bus peer tracking object while it is being enumerated the enumeration ends on the next invocation
154 of <function>sd_bus_track_next()</function> as <constant>NULL</constant> is returned.</para>

158 <title>Return Value</title>
159
160 <para>On success, <function>sd_bus_track_add_name()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_add_sender()</function>
161 return 0 if the specified name has already been added to the bus peer tracking object before and positive if it
162 hasn't. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error code.</para>
163
164 <para><function>sd_bus_track_remove_name()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_remove_sender()</function> return
165 positive if the specified name was previously tracked by the bus peer tracking object and has now been removed. In
166 non-recursive mode, 0 is returned if the specified name was not being tracked yet. In recursive mode
167 <constant>-EUNATCH</constant> is returned in this case. On failure, they return a negative errno-style error
168 code.</para>
169
170 <para><function>sd_bus_track_count()</function> returns the number of names currently being tracked, or 0 on
171 failure.</para>
172
173 <para><function>sd_bus_track_count_name()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_count_sender()</function> return
174 the current per-name counter for the specified name or the sender of the specified message. Zero is returned for
175 names that are not being tracked yet, a positive value for names added at least once. Larger values than 1 are only
176 returned in recursive mode. On failure, a negative errno-style error code is returned.</para>
177
178 <para><function>sd_bus_track_contains()</function> returns the passed name if it exists in the bus peer tracking
179 object. On failure, and if the name has not been added yet <constant>NULL</constant> is returned.</para>
180
181 <para><function>sd_bus_track_first()</function> and <function>sd_bus_track_next()</function> return the first/next
182 name contained in the bus peer tracking object, and <constant>NULL</constant> if the end of the enumeration is
183 reached and on error.</para>
