This introduces strong types for `std::string`-based D-Bus types. This facilitates safer, less error-prone and more expressive API.
What previously was `auto proxy = createProxy("org.sdbuscpp.concatenator", "/org/sdbuscpp/concatenator");` is now written like `auto proxy = createProxy(ServiceName{"org.sdbuscpp.concatenator"}, ObjectPath{"/org/sdbuscpp/concatenator"});`.
These types are:
* `ObjectPath` type for the object path (the type has been around already but now is also used consistently in sdbus-c++ API for object path strings),
* `InterfaceName` type for D-Bus interface names,
* `BusName` (and its aliases `ServiceName` and `ConnectionName`) type for bus/service/connection names,
* `MemberName` (and its aliases `MethodName`, `SignalName` and `PropertyName`) type for D-Bus method, signal and property names,
* `Signature` type for the D-Bus signature (the type has been around already but now is also used consistently in sdbus-c++ API for signature strings),
* `Error::Name` type for D-Bus error names.
This switches from a raw pointer to std::optional type to pass prospective call errors to the client (using std::optional was not possible years back when sdbus-c++ was based on C++14). This makes the API a little clearer, safer, idiomatically more expressive, and removes potential confusion associated with raw pointers (like ownership, lifetime questions, etc.).
This makes D-Bus proxy signal registration more flexible, more dynamic, and less error-prone since no `finishRegistration()` call is needed. A proxy can register to a signal at any time during its lifetime, and can unregister freely by simply destroying the associated slot.
* feat: add async property get/set convenience support classes
* feat: add no-reply and async overloads to Properties_proxy
* feat: add convenience functions for GetAll functionality
* test: add tests for new functionality
* add codegen IDL support and documentation
Allow to use human readable chrono literals to specify method call
timeout. The change is backward compatbile - if no unit is provided,
the fallback is "us".
Example:
<annotation name="org.freedesktop.DBus.Method.Timeout" value="500ms"/>
- add a list of c++ keywords and common defines
- sanitize names so that there are no functions/args with names that are reserved in c++
