NAME¶
qdbus - a communication-interface for qt-based applications
SYNOPSIS¶
qdbus [--system] [--literal] [servicename] [path] [method] [args]
DESCRIPTION¶
qdbus provides an interface to Qt-based applications communicating over
D-Bus. See
http://www.freedesktop.org/software/dbus/ for more information
about the big picture.
By default
qdbus will list all service names of services that are running
and you can manipulate at the moment. You can also manipulate and run several
types of methods for each dbus-enabled application.
- servicename
- the service to connect to (e.g., org.freedesktop.DBus)
- path
- the path to the object (e.g., /)
- method
- the method to call, with or without the interface
- args
- arguments to pass to the call
OPTIONS¶
- --system
- connect to the system bus
- --literal
- print replies literally
EXAMPLE¶
Here is an example of using
qdbus to list all status information about a
service:
% qdbus org.ktorrent.ktorrent
