DBusServer

#GDBusServer is a helper for listening to and accepting D-Bus connections. This can be used to create a new D-Bus server, allowing two peers to use the D-Bus protocol for their own specialized communication. A server instance provided in this way will not perform message routing or implement the org.freedesktop.DBus interface.

To just export an object on a well-known name on a message bus, such as the session or system bus, you should instead use g_bus_own_name().

An example of peer-to-peer communication with GDBus can be found in gdbus-example-peer.c.

Note that a minimal #GDBusServer will accept connections from any peer. In many use-cases it will be necessary to add a #GDBusAuthObserver that only accepts connections that have successfully authenticated as the same user that is running the #GDBusServer. Since GLib 2.68 this can be achieved more simply by passing the %G_DBUS_SERVER_FLAGS_AUTHENTICATION_REQUIRE_SAME_USER flag to the server.
