NAME

       sd_bus_add_object_manager - Add a D-Bus object manager for a D-Bus object sub-tree

SYNOPSIS

       #include <systemd/sd-bus.h>

       int sd_bus_add_object_manager(sd_bus *bus, sd_bus_slot **slot, const char *path);

DESCRIPTION

       sd_bus_add_object_manager() installs a handler for the given path that implements the
       GetManagedObjects() method of the org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager interface. See
       org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager[1] for more information.

       To implement the InterfacesAdded and InterfacesRemoved signals of the
       org.freedesktop.DBus.ObjectManager interface, call sd_bus_emit_interfaces_added(3) and
       sd_bus_emit_interfaces_removed(3) whenever interfaces are added or removed from the
       sub-tree, respectively.

       When sd_bus_add_object_manager() succeeds, a slot is created internally. If the output
       parameter slot is NULL, a "floating" slot object is created, see
       sd_bus_slot_set_floating(3). Otherwise, a pointer to the slot object is returned. In that
       case, the reference to the slot object should be dropped when the object manager is not
       needed anymore, see sd_bus_slot_unref(3).

RETURN VALUE

       On success, sd_bus_add_object_manager() returns a non-negative integer. On failure, it
       returns a negative errno-style error code.

   Errors
       Returned errors may indicate the following problems:

       -EINVAL
           One of the required parameters is NULL or path is not a valid object path.

       -ENOPKG
           The bus cannot be resolved.

       -ECHILD
           The bus was created in a different process.

       -ENOMEM
           Memory allocation failed.

NOTES

       These APIs are implemented as a shared library, which can be compiled and linked to with
       the libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.
