sdbus-c++

sdbus-c++ is a C++ API library for D-Bus IPC, based on sd-bus implementation.

Building and installing the library

$ ./autogen.sh ${CONFIGURE_FLAGS}
$ make
$ sudo make install

Use --disable-tests flag when configuring to disable building unit and integration tests for the library.

Dependencies

• C++17 - the library uses C++17 std::uncaught_exceptions() feature. When building sdbus-c++ manually, make sure you use a compiler that supports that feature.
• libsystemd - systemd library containing sd-bus implementation. Systemd v236 at least is needed for sdbus-c++ to compile.
• googletest - google unit testing framework, only necessary when building tests

Licensing

The library is distributed under LGPLv2.1 license.
