Description

simple interprocess messaging system D-Bus is a message bus, used for sending messages between applications. Conceptually, it fits somewhere in between raw sockets and CORBA in terms of complexity. D-Bus supports broadcast messages, asynchronous messages (thus decreasing latency), authentication, and more. It is designed to be low-overhead; messages are sent using a binary protocol, not using XML. D-Bus also supports a method call mapping for its messages, but it is not required; this makes using the system quite simple. It comes with several bindings, including GLib, Python, Qt and Java. The daemon can be found in the dbus package.

Dependencies

Dashed entries aren't in this mirror — they're typically Nokia system packages that should already be on the device.
