SD_BUS_...OD_CALLS(3)  sd_bus_pending_method_calls  SD_BUS_...OD_CALLS(3)

NAME         top

       sd_bus_pending_method_calls - Return the number of currently
       pending, outgoing method calls

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <systemd/sd-bus.h>

       int sd_bus_pending_method_calls(sd_bus *bus);

DESCRIPTION         top

       sd_bus_pending_method_calls() returns the number of currently
       pending outgoing method calls, i.e. method calls enqueued with
       sd_bus_call_async(3) for which no reply has been received yet, and
       which have not reached a timeout yet.

       The bus argument may be NULL, in which case zero is returned.

RETURN VALUE         top

       This function returns 0 if there are no pending method calls, or a
       NULL bus object was specified. On failure, a negative errno-style
       error code is returned.

   Errors
       Returned errors may indicate the following problems:

       -ECHILD
           The bus connection has been created in a different process,
           library or module instance.

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

       sd_bus_pending_method_calls() was added in version 257.
