  40     <para><function>sd_bus_message_copy()</function> copies the contents from
  41     message <parameter>source</parameter> to <parameter>m</parameter>. If
  42     <parameter>all</parameter> is false, a single complete type is copied
  43     (basic or container). If <parameter>all</parameter> is true, the contents
  44     are copied until the end of the currently open container or the end
  45     of <parameter>source</parameter>.</para>
