<title>Description</title>
<para>These functions set or query D-Bus properties. D-Bus properties are service fields exposed
via the <constant>org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties</constant> interface. Under the hood, these
functions call methods of the <constant>org.freedesktop.DBus.Properties</constant> interface and
as a result their semantics are similar to
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_call_method</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_set_property()</function> sets a D-Bus property. If setting the property
fails or an internal error occurs, an error is returned and an extended description of the error
is optionally stored in <parameter>ret_error</parameter> if it is not <constant>NULL</constant>.
<parameter>type</parameter> and the arguments that follow it describe the new value of the
property and must follow the format described in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_append</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_set_propertyv()</function> is equivalent to
<function>sd_bus_set_property()</function>, except that it is called with a
<literal>va_list</literal> instead of a variable number of arguments.</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_get_property()</function> queries a D-Bus property. If retrieving the
property fails or an internal error occurs, an error is returned and an extended description of
the error is optionally stored in <parameter>ret_error</parameter> if it is not
<constant>NULL</constant>. On success, the property is stored in <parameter>reply</parameter>.
<parameter>type</parameter> describes the property type and must follow the format described in
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_message_append</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
</para>
<para><function>sd_bus_get_property_trivial()</function>,
<function>sd_bus_get_property_string()</function> and
<function>sd_bus_get_property_strv()</function> are shorthands for
<function>sd_bus_get_property()</function> that are used to query basic, string and string
vector properties respectively. The caller is responsible for freeing the string and string
vector results stored in <parameter>ret</parameter> by
<function>sd_bus_get_property_string()</function> and
<function>sd_bus_get_property_strv()</function>.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>Return Value</title>
<para>On success, these functions return a non-negative integer. On failure, they return a
negative errno-style error code.</para>

<citerefentry><refentrytitle>sd_bus_call_method</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum></citerefentry>
