[dbus-cplusplus-devel] timeout with DBus::InterfaceProxy::invoke_method

[Darrell S. <da...@sc...>]

I would like to be able to increase the timeout for method invocations. In
the portion of the call stack shown below, timeout arguments are available
at 'DBus::Connection::send_blocking( )' and below. Is there some way to do
this that I have not discovered yet?

Is providing the ability to set invocation timeout (in general or on a
method by method basis) something that anyone has considered?

It seems like there are a couple of possibilities. A gross solution like an
environment variable or a cleaner solution of adding it as an option to the
XML to cpp converter (which generated the 'ViewerProxy.dbusproxy.h' header
shown below). Is this something that others would find useful?

thanks for any comments,
Darrell
