DZ> Applications (that are not disk utility, partitioning etc. apps) DZ> should just be using the GIO API since it's simpler and do what DZ> they need (discover/watch mounts). Or, of course, similar APIs if DZ> you use other toolkits than the G stack. As involved in E stack, I should comment this leats to major PitA: either you need to keep code to talk to different versions of DK-[dp] (== bloat) or to restrict your libraries to a limited set of versions of DK-[dp] (== useless). DZ> GLib and/or Gtk+ would also provide implementations on Win32/OS DZ> X/whatever that uses the appropriate OS specific stuff. So D-Bus DK-[dp] protocol is considered internal? D-Bus becomes just a mechanism for privilege separation and interaction with PolicyKit, and not a, uhm, service bus. -- http://fossarchy.blogspot.com/
