|

<para><function>sd_bus_open_user()</function> creates a new bus
|
||
object and opens a connection to the the user bus.
|
||
<function>sd_bus_open_system()</function> does the same, but
|
||
connects to the system bus.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>If <varname>$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS</varname> environment
|
||
variable is set
|
||
(c.f. <citerefentry><refentrytitle>environ</refentrytitle><manvolnum>7</manvolnum></citerefentry>),
|
||
it will be used as the address of the user bus. This variable can
|
||
contain multiple addresses separated by <literal>;</literal>. If
|
||
this variable is not set, a suitable default for the default user
|
||
D-Bus instance will be used.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para>If <varname>$DBUS_SYSTEM_BUS_ADDRESS</varname> environment
|
||
variable is set, it will be used as the address of the system
|
||
bus. This variable uses the same syntax as
|
||
<varname>$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS</varname>/. If this variable is
|
||
not set, a suitable default for the default system D-Bus instance
|
||
will be used.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_open_system_remote()</function> connects to
|
||
the system bus on the specified <parameter>host</parameter> using
|
||
SSH. <parameter>host</parameter> consists of an optional user name
|
||
followed by the <literal>@</literal> symbol, and the hostname.

</para>
|

|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_open_system_remote()</function> connects to
|

the system bus in the specified <parameter>machine</parameter>,
|

where <parameter>machine</parameter> is the name of a container.

for more information about "machines".</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_default_user()</function> returns a bus
|
||
object connected to the user bus. This bus object is shared
|
||
per-thread. It is created on the first invocation of
|
||
<function>sd_bus_default_user()</function>, and subsequent
|
||
invocations returns a reference to the same object.</para>
|
||
|
||
<para><function>sd_bus_default_system()</function> is similar to
|
||
<function>sd_bus_default_user()</function>, but connects to the
|

system bus.</para>

<title>Return Value</title>
