signalSubscribe

Subscribes to signals on @connection and invokes @callback with a whenever the signal is received. Note that @callback will be invoked in the g-main-context-push-thread-default of the thread you are calling this method from.

If @connection is not a message bus connection, @sender must be null.

If @sender is a well-known name note that @callback is invoked with the unique name for the owner of @sender, not the well-known name as one would expect. This is because the message bus rewrites the name. As such, to avoid certain race conditions, users should be tracking the name owner of the well-known name and use that when processing the received signal.

If one of %G_DBUS_SIGNAL_FLAGS_MATCH_ARG0_NAMESPACE or %G_DBUS_SIGNAL_FLAGS_MATCH_ARG0_PATH are given, @arg0 is interpreted as part of a namespace or path. The first argument of a signal is matched against that part as specified by D-Bus.

If @user_data_free_func is non-null, it will be called (in the thread-default main context of the thread you are calling this method from) at some point after @user_data is no longer needed. (It is not guaranteed to be called synchronously when the signal is unsubscribed from, and may be called after @connection has been destroyed.)

As @callback is potentially invoked in a different thread from where it’s emitted, it’s possible for this to happen after g_dbus_connection_signal_unsubscribe() has been called in another thread. Due to this, @user_data should have a strong reference which is freed with
