65 <title>Description</title>
66
67 <para>The <function>sd_bus_message_append</function> function can be
68 used to append an array of strings to message
69 <parameter>m</parameter>. The parameter <parameter>l</parameter>
70 shall point to a <constant>NULL</constant>-terminated array of pointers
71 to <constant>NUL</constant>-terminated strings. Each string must
72 satisfy the same constraints as described for the
73 <literal>s</literal> type in
74 <citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_append_basic</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
75 </para>
76
77 <para>The memory pointed at by <parameter>p</parameter> and the
78 contents of the strings themselves are copied into the memory area
79 containing the message and may be changed after this call. Note
80 that the signature of <parameter>l</parameter> parameter is to be
81 treated as <type>const char *const *</type>, and the contents
82 will not be modified.</para>

86 <title>Return Value</title>
87
88 <para>On success, this call returns 0 or a positive integer. On
89 failure, a negative errno-style error code is returned.</para>
