SD_BUS_MESSAGE_AT_END(3)  sd_bus_message_at_end  SD_BUS_MESSAGE_AT_END(3)

NAME         top

       sd_bus_message_at_end - Check if a message has been fully read

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <systemd/sd-bus.h>

       int sd_bus_message_at_end(sd_bus_message *m, int complete);

DESCRIPTION         top

       sd_bus_message_at_end() returns whether all data from the
       currently opened container in m or all data from all containers in
       m has been read. If complete is zero, this function returns
       whether all data from the currently opened container has been
       read. If complete is non-zero, this function returns whether all
       data from all containers in m has been read.

RETURN VALUE         top

       If all data from all containers or the current container
       (depending on the value of complete) has been read,
       sd_bus_message_at_end() returns a positive integer. If there is
       still data left to be read, it returns zero. On failure, it
       returns a negative errno-style error code.

   Errors
       Returned errors may indicate the following problems:

       -EINVAL
           The m parameter is NULL.

           Added in version 246.

       -EPERM
           The message is not sealed.

           Added in version 246.

NOTES         top

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

       All functions listed here are thread-agnostic and only a single
       thread may operate on a given object at any given time. Different
       threads may access the same object at different times. Multiple
       independent objects may be used from different threads in
       parallel.

       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.

HISTORY         top
