[dbus-cplusplus-devel] Variant type handling

[Or G. <ob...@gm...>]

Hi

How do I assign a value to a new variant type ?

For example:

::DBus::Variant Server::get(const std::string& key) {
    ::DBus::Variant var;

    // var = std::string("test"); // not this way

    // var.writer() << std::string("test"); // not this way either

    return var;
}

Next question - suppose a Variant contains an array of strings, how do I
detect that + how do I parse that ?

For example:

void Server::set(const std::string& key, const ::DBus::Variant& value) {
    if (value.signature().c_str()[0] == 'a') {
        // array
        //Am I suppose to parse the signature here ?
} else {
        // basic type
        std::string str = value;
        std::cout << str << std::endl;
    }
}

Thanks,
 Or
