sd_bus_message_verify_type - Check if the message has specified type at the current location

#include <systemd/sd-bus.h>

int sd_bus_message_verify_type(sd_bus_message *m, char type, const char* contents);

sd_bus_message_verify_type() checks if the complete type at the current location in the message m matches the specified type and contents. If non-zero, parameter type must be one of the types specified in sd_bus_message_append(1). If non-null, parameter contents must be a valid sequence of complete types. If both type and contents are specified type must be a container type.

If type is specified, the type in the message must match. If contents is specified, the type in the message must be a container type with this signature.

On success, this call returns true if the type matches and zero if not (the message m contains different data or the end of the message has been reached). On failure, it returns a negative errno-style error code.

Returned errors may indicate the following problems:

-EINVAL

m or both type and contents are NULL.

Arguments do not satisfy other constraints listed above.

-EPERM

Message m is not sealed.

Functions described here are available as a shared library, which can be compiled against and linked to with the libsystemd pkg-config(1) file.

The code described here uses getenv(3), which is declared to be not multi-thread-safe. This means that the code calling the functions described here must not call setenv(3) from a parallel thread. It is recommended to only do calls to setenv() from an early phase of the program when no other threads have been started.
