Asynchronously invokes the `Poke()` D-Bus method on `proxy`. When the operation is finished, `callback` will be invoked in the thread-default main loop of the thread you are calling this method from. You can then call `example_animal_call_poke_finish()` to get the result of the operation.

See `example_animal_call_poke_sync()` for the synchronous, blocking version of this method.

`proxy` : | A ExampleAnimalProxy.
`arg_make_sad` : | Argument to pass with the method invocation.
`arg_make_happy` : | Argument to pass with the method invocation.
`cancellable` : | A GCancellable or `NULL`. [allow-none]
`callback` : | A GAsyncReadyCallback to call when the request is satisfied or `NULL`.
`user_data` : | User data to pass to `callback`.

Since 2.30

Finishes an operation started with `example_animal_call_poke()`.

`proxy` : | A ExampleAnimalProxy.
`res` : | The GAsyncResult obtained from the GAsyncReadyCallback passed to `example_animal_call_poke()`.
`error` : | Return location for error or `NULL`.
Returns : | `TRUE` if the call succeded, `FALSE` if `error` is set. [skip]

Since 2.30

### example_animal_call_poke_sync ()

    gboolean            example_animal_call_poke_sync       (ExampleAnimal *proxy,
                                                             gboolean arg_make_sad,
                                                             gboolean arg_make_happy,

Synchronously invokes the `Poke()` D-Bus method on `proxy`. The calling thread is blocked until a reply is received.

See `example_animal_call_poke()` for the asynchronous version of this method.

`proxy` : | A ExampleAnimalProxy.
`arg_make_sad` : | Argument to pass with the method invocation.
`arg_make_happy` : | Argument to pass with the method invocation.
`cancellable` : | A GCancellable or `NULL`. [allow-none]
`error` : | Return location for error or `NULL`.
Returns : | `TRUE` if the call succeded, `FALSE` if `error` is set. [skip]

Since 2.30

### example_animal_complete_poke ()

    void                example_animal_complete_poke        (ExampleAnimal *object,
                                                             GDBusMethodInvocation *invocation);

Helper function used in service implementations to finish handling invocations of the `Poke()` D-Bus method. If you instead want to finish handling an invocation by returning an error, use `g_dbus_method_invocation_return_error()` or similar.

This method will free `invocation`, you cannot use it afterwards.

`object` : | A ExampleAnimal.
`invocation` : | A GDBusMethodInvocation. [transfer full]

Since 2.30

### example_animal_emit_jumped ()

    void                example_animal_emit_jumped          (ExampleAnimal *object,
                                                             gdouble arg_height);

Emits the "Jumped" D-Bus signal.

`object` : | A ExampleAnimal.
`arg_height` : | Argument to pass with the signal.

Since 2.30

### example_animal_get_mood ()

    const gchar *       example_animal_get_mood             (ExampleAnimal *object);

Gets the value of the "Mood" D-Bus property.

Since this D-Bus property is readable, it is meaningful to use this function on both the client- and service-side.

### Warning

The returned value is only valid until the property changes so on the client-side it is only safe to use this function on the thread where `object` was constructed. Use `example_animal_dup_mood()` if on another thread.

`object` : | A ExampleAnimal.
Returns : | The property value or `NULL` if the property is not set. Do not free the returned value, it belongs to `object`. [transfer none]

Since 2.30

### example_animal_get_foo ()

    const gchar *       example_animal_get_foo              (ExampleAnimal *object);

Gets the value of the "Foo" D-Bus property.

Since this D-Bus property is readable, it is meaningful to use this function on both the client- and service-side.

### Warning

The returned value is only valid until the property changes so on the client-side it is only safe to use this function on the thread where `object` was constructed. Use `example_animal_dup_foo()` if on another thread.

`object` : | A ExampleAnimal.
Returns : | The property value or `NULL` if the property is not set. Do not free the returned value, it belongs to `object`. [transfer none]

Since 2.30

### example_animal_get_bar ()

    const gchar *       example_animal_get_bar              (ExampleAnimal *object);

Gets the value of the "Bar" D-Bus property.

Since this D-Bus property is readable, it is meaningful to use this function on both the client- and service-side.

### Warning

The returned value is only valid until the property changes so on the client-side it is only safe to use this function on the thread where `object` was constructed. Use `example_animal_dup_bar()` if on another thread.

`object` : | A ExampleAnimal.
Returns : | The property value or `NULL` if the property is not set. Do not free the returned value, it belongs to `object`. [transfer none]

Since 2.36

### example_animal_dup_mood ()

    gchar *             example_animal_dup_mood             (ExampleAnimal *object);

Gets a copy of the "Mood" D-Bus property.

Since this D-Bus property is readable, it is meaningful to use this function on both the client- and service-side.

`object` : | A ExampleAnimal.
Returns : | The property value or `NULL` if the property is not set. The returned value should be freed with `g_free()`. [transfer full]

## Property Details

### The `"bar"` property

      "bar"                      gchar*                : Read / Write

Represents the D-Bus property "Bar".

Since the D-Bus property for this GObject property is readable but not writable, it is meaningful to read from it on both the client- and service-side. It is only meaningful, however, to write to it on the service-side.

Default value: NULL

Since 2.36

### The `"foo"` property

      "foo"                      gchar*                : Read / Write

Represents the D-Bus property "Foo".

Since the D-Bus property for this GObject property is readable but not writable, it is meaningful to read from it on both the client- and service-side. It is only meaningful, however, to write to it on the service-side.

Default value: NULL

Since 2.30

### The `"mood"` property

      "mood"                     gchar*                : Read / Write

Represents the D-Bus property "Mood".

Since the D-Bus property for this GObject property is readable but not writable, it is meaningful to read from it on both the client- and service-side. It is only meaningful, however, to write to it on the service-side.

## Signal Details

### The `"handle-poke"` signal

    gboolean            user_function                      (ExampleAnimal         *object,
                                                            GDBusMethodInvocation *invocation,
                                                            gboolean               arg_make_sad,
                                                            gboolean               arg_make_happy,

Signal emitted when a remote caller is invoking the `Poke()` D-Bus method.

If a signal handler returns `TRUE`, it means the signal handler will handle the invocation (e.g. take a reference to `invocation` and eventually call `example_animal_complete_poke()` or e.g. `g_dbus_method_invocation_return_error()` on it) and no order signal handlers will run. If no signal handler handles the invocation, the `G_DBUS_ERROR_UNKNOWN_METHOD` error is returned.

`object` : | A ExampleAnimal.
`invocation` : | A GDBusMethodInvocation.
`arg_make_sad` : | Argument passed by remote caller.
`arg_make_happy` : | Argument passed by remote caller.
`user_data` : | user data set when the signal handler was connected.
Returns : | `TRUE` if the invocation was handled, `FALSE` to let other signal handlers run.

Since 2.30

### The `"jumped"` signal

    void                user_function                      (ExampleAnimal *object,
                                                            gdouble        arg_height,

On the client-side, this signal is emitted whenever the D-Bus signal "Jumped" is received.

On the service-side, this signal can be used with e.g. `g_signal_emit_by_name()` to make the object emit the D-Bus signal.

`object` : | A ExampleAnimal.
`arg_height` : | Argument.
`user_data` : | user data set when the signal handler was connected.
