<title>Description</title>
<para><function>sd_bus_set_connected_signal()</function> may be used to control whether a local, synthetic
<function>Connected()</function> signal message shall be generated and enqueued for dispatching when the connection
is fully established. If the <parameter>b</parameter> parameter is zero the message is not generated (the default),
otherwise it is generated.</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_get_connected_signal()</function> may be used to query whether this feature is enabled. It
returns zero if not, positive otherwise.</para>
<para>The <function>Connected()</function> signal message is generated from the
<literal>org.freedesktop.DBus.Local</literal> service and interface, and
<literal>/org/freedesktop/DBus/Local</literal> object path. Use
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_match_signal_async</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> to
match on this signal.</para>
<para>This message is particularly useful on slow transports where connections take a long time to be
established. This is especially the case when
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_set_watch_bind</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> is
used. The signal is generated when the
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_is_ready</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry> returns
positive for the first time.</para>
<para>The <function>Connected()</function> signal corresponds with the <function>Disconnected()</function> signal
that is synthesized locally when the connection is terminated. The latter is generated unconditionally however,
unlike the former which needs to be enabled explicitly before it is generated, with
<function>sd_bus_set_connected_signal()</function>.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, these functions return 0 or a positive integer. On failure, they return a negative
errno-style error code.</para>

<title>Errors</title>
<para>Returned errors may indicate the following problems:</para>
