annotate libpurple/plugins/dbus-example.c @ 18035:c168d1ae2012

A patch from Norbert Buchmuller: "There's a 'setstatus' command implemented in 'gaim-remote', but there's no 'getstatus'. For some tasks (eg. setting status to 'offline' on hibernation and restoring it on resume) it would be useful if such command existed." I'm not sure if we're considering this API or not. committer: Richard Laager <[e-mail]>

/*
 *   This is an example of a purple dbus plugin.  After enabling this
 *   plugin, the following commands should work from the command line:
 *
 *   prompt$ purple-send DbusExampleGetHelloObject
 *
 *     returns, say: int32 74
 *
 *   prompt$ purple-send DbusExampleGetText int32:74
 *
 *     returns: string "Hello."
 *
 *   prompt$ purple-send DbusExampleSetText int32:74 string:Bye!
 *
 *   prompt$ purple-send DbusExampleGetText int32:74
 *
 *     returns: string "Bye!"
