<title>Description</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><function>sd_bus_message_read_array()</function> gives access to an element array in
|
|
message <parameter>m</parameter>. The "read pointer" in the message must be right before an
|
|
array of type <parameter>type</parameter>. As a special case, <parameter>type</parameter> may be
|
|
<constant>NUL</constant>, in which case any type is acceptable. A pointer to the array data is
|
|
returned in the parameter <parameter>ptr</parameter> and the size of array data (in bytes) is
|
|
returned in the parameter <parameter>size</parameter>. If <parameter>size</parameter> is 0, a
|
|
valid non-null pointer will be returned, but it may not be dereferenced. The data is aligned as
|
|
appropriate for the data type. The data is part of the message — it may not be modified and is
|
|
valid only as long as the message is referenced. After this function returns, the "read pointer"
|
|
points at the next element after the array.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that this function only supports arrays of trivial types, i.e. arrays of booleans, the various
|
|
integer types, as well as floating point numbers. In particular it may not be used for arrays of strings,
|
|
structures or similar.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
|

<para>
|
|
On success, <function>sd_bus_message_read_array()</function> returns 0 or
|
|
a positive integer. On failure, it returns a negative errno-style error
|
|
code.
