<title>Introduction to D-BUS</title>
|
|
|
|
<para><application>D-BUS</application> is a message bus system, a simple
|
|
way for applications to talk to one another.
|
|
<application>D-BUS</application> supplies both a system daemon (for events
|
|
such as <quote>new hardware device added</quote> or <quote>printer queue
|
|
changed</quote>) and a per-user-login-session daemon (for general IPC needs
|
|
among user applications). Also, the message bus is built on top of a
|
|
general one-to-one message passing framework, which can be used by any two
|
|
applications to communicate directly (without going through the message bus
|
|
daemon).</para>
