NAME         top

       sd_bus_slot_set_userdata, sd_bus_slot_get_userdata - Set and query
       the value in the "userdata" field

SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <systemd/sd-bus.h>

       void* sd_bus_slot_set_userdata(sd_bus_slot* slot, void* userdata);

       void* sd_bus_slot_get_userdata(sd_bus_slot* slot);

DESCRIPTION         top

       The userdata pointer allows data to be passed between the point
       where a callback is registered, for example when a filter is added
       using sd_bus_add_filter(3) or an asynchronous function call is
       made using sd_bus_call_async(3), and the point where the callback
       is called, without having any global state. The pointer has type
       void* and is not used by the sd-bus functions in any way, except
       to pass to the callback function.

       Usually, the userdata field is set when the slot object is
       initially registered.  sd_bus_slot_set_userdata() may be used to
       change it later for the bus slot object slot. Previous value of
       the field is returned. The argument and returned value may be
       NULL. It will be passed as the userdata argument to the callback
       function attached to the slot.

       sd_bus_slot_set_userdata() gets the value of the userdata field in
       the bus slot object slot.

RETURN VALUE         top

       On success, these functions return the value of the userdata field
       before the function call. If the slot object is NULL, NULL will be
       returned to signify an error, but this is not distinguishable from
       the userdata field value being NULL.

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.

       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_slot_set_userdata() and sd_bus_slot_get_userdata() were
       added in version 240.
