DBusProxy.callSync
glib.variant.Variant callSync(string methodName, glib.variant.Variant parameters, gio.types.DBusCallFlags flags, int timeoutMsec, gio.cancellable.Cancellable cancellable = null)Synchronously invokes the method_name method on proxy.
If method_name contains any dots, then name is split into interface and method name parts. This allows using proxy for invoking methods on other interfaces.
If the #GDBusConnection associated with proxy is disconnected then the operation will fail with [gio.types.IOErrorEnum.Closed]. If cancellable is canceled, the operation will fail with [gio.types.IOErrorEnum.Cancelled]. If parameters contains a value not compatible with the D-Bus protocol, the operation fails with [gio.types.IOErrorEnum.InvalidArgument].
If the parameters #GVariant is floating, it is consumed. This allows convenient 'inline' use of [glib.variant.Variant.new_], e.g.:
g_dbus_proxy_call_sync (proxy,
"TwoStrings",
g_variant_new ("(ss)",
"Thing One",
"Thing Two"),
G_DBUS_CALL_FLAGS_NONE,
-1,
NULL,
&error);The calling thread is blocked until a reply is received. See [gio.dbus_proxy.DBusProxy.call] for the asynchronous version of this method.
If proxy has an expected interface (see #GDBusProxy:g-interface-info) and method_name is referenced by it, then the return value is checked against the return type.
Parameters
methodName | Name of method to invoke. |
parameters | A #GVariant tuple with parameters for the signal or null if not passing parameters. |
flags | Flags from the #GDBusCallFlags enumeration. |
timeoutMsec | The timeout in milliseconds (with G_MAXINT meaning "infinite") or -1 to use the proxy default timeout. |
cancellable | A #GCancellable or null. |
