…ing D-Bus for a simple client-server relationship and not in the more common client-client. This only supports method calls from the client to the server at present.

It begins to work, but still triggers a new exception:
flutter: ERROR ubuntu_init: Unhandled exception

The problem seems to be when creating a DBusRemoteObjectSignal object, to receive signals. |

I think this branch should be able to receive signals now, though I haven't tested it. I'm landing some structural changes on main then I'll being these over after. |
|
In fact, I think this should now work from main, I haven't got a test for the method calls there because I'm not sure the best way to expose them server side, but the code should support both methods and signals. |
|
It would be good to have a test case matching what @sergio-costas is doing. |
|
@robert-ancell I'll test this right now. Thanks! |
|
This code works great, it talks flawlessly with GDM, and opens the new session perfectly. Thanks!!!! |
|
Is everything you need working on main? This PR is too difficult to merge back, I'll look at adding any missing features in a separate PR. |
|
@robert-ancell Yes, everything works like a charm. |
|
@robert-ancell Agh, sorry! I didn't read the "in main" part, and I presumed that you was asking if this patch had everything that I needed.. I'll check if it does work. |
|
Ok, I tested it with the code from the main branch of https://github.com/canonical/dbus.dart.git, and it works fine. |
Allow clients and servers to operate without names, for example if using D-Bus
for a simple client-server relationship and not in the more common client-client.
This only supports method calls from the client to the server at present.
