SD_BUS_...OD_CALLS(3) sd_bus_pending_method_callsSD_BUS_...OD_CALLS(3)sd_bus_pending_method_calls - Return the number of currently pending, outgoing method calls
#include <systemd/sd-bus.h>int sd_bus_pending_method_calls(sd_bus *bus);
sd_bus_pending_method_calls()returns the number of currently pending outgoing method calls, i.e. method calls enqueued withsd_bus_call_async(3) for which no reply has been received yet, and which have not reached a timeout yet. Thebus argument may beNULL, in which case zero is returned.
This function returns 0 if there are no pending method calls, or aNULLbus 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.
Functions described here are available as a shared library, which can be compiled against and linked to with thelibsystemd pkg-config(1) file. The code described here usesgetenv(3), which is declared to be not multi-thread-safe. This means that the code calling the functions described here must not callsetenv(3) from a parallel thread. It is recommended to only do calls tosetenv()from an early phase of the program when no other threads have been started.
sd_bus_pending_method_calls()was added in version 257.
